Background: The chromatin remodelers of the SWI/SNF family are critical transcriptional regulators. Recognition of lysine acetylation through a bromodomain (BRD) component is key to SWI/SNF function; in most eukaryotes, this function is attributed to ...

The replicative lifespan-extending deletion of SGF73 results in altered ribosomal gene expression in yeast. [PDF]
Sgf73, a core component of SAGA, is the yeast orthologue of ataxin-7, which undergoes CAG-polyglutamine repeat expansion leading to the human neurodegenerative disease spinocerebellar ataxia type 7 (SCA7).

Histone chaperone exploits intrinsic disorder to switch acetylation specificity
Histone chaperones have been shown to control the activity and specificity of histone-modifying enzymes. Here the authors establish a structural model of the acetyltransferase Rtt109 in complex with Asf1 and Vps75 and the histone dimer H3:H4, finding ...

Small Molecules Targeting HATs, HDACs, and BRDs in Cancer Therapy
Evidence for research over the past decade shows that epigenetic regulation mechanisms run through the development and prognosis of tumors. Therefore, small molecular compounds targeting epigenetic regulation have become a research hotspot in the ...

Magnetic Ion Channel Activation (MICA) enables remote stimulation of mechanosensitive ion channels using functionalised magnetic nanoparticles, enhancing extracellular vesicle (EV) biogenesis is pre‐osteoblasts. MICA desrived EVs exhibit typical nano‐vesicular characteristics but display superior pro‐osteogeneic activity, promoting mesenchymal stem ...

Proximity labelling of pro-interleukin-1α reveals evolutionary conserved nuclear interactions
Interleukin-1α is a suggested dual-function cytokine that diverged from interleukin-1β in mammals potentially by acquiring additional biological roles that relate to highly conserved regions in the pro-domain of interleukin-1α, including a nuclear ...

The histone acetyltransferase (HAT) Gcn5 ortholog is essential for a variety of fungi. Here, we characterize the roles of Ada2 and Ada3, which are functionally linked to Gcn5, in the insect-pathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana.

Lysine acetyltransferase 5 in EGFR mutated non-small cell lung cancer [PDF]
Histone modifications are crucial in activities such as transcriptional activation, gene silencing, and epigenetic cellular memory. In particular, lysine acetylation via lysine (K) acetyltransferases (KATs) has been implicated in cancer development ...
