Failure of long-term memory formation in juvenile snails is determined by acetylation status of histone H3 and can be improved by NaB treatment. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Animals' capacities for different forms of learning do not mature simultaneously during ontogenesis but the molecular mechanisms behind the delayed development of specific types of memory are not fully understood.

DNA mismatch repair interacts with CAF-1- and ASF1A-H3-H4-dependent histone (H3-H4)2 tetramer deposition. [PDF]
DNA mismatch repair (MMR) is required for the maintenance of genome stability and protection of humans from several types of cancer. Human MMR occurs in the chromatin environment, but little is known about the interactions between MMR and the chromatin ...

Oncogenic Mechanisms of Histone H3 Mutations [PDF]
Recurrent missense mutations in histone H3 were recently reported in pediatric gliomas and soft tissue tumors. Strikingly, these mutations only affected a minority of the total cellular H3 proteins and occurred at or near lysine residues at positions 27 and 36 on the amino-terminal tail of H3 that are subject to well-characterized posttranslational ...

H3–H4 histone chaperones and cancer
Histone chaperones are key regulators of chromatin structure and function. Their frequent mis-regulation in various cancers can impact tumor initiation and progression. Here, we focus on H3-H4 histone chaperones to highlight recent studies concerning their roles in several cancers thereby expanding on previous reports illustrating their functions as ...

Identification and Characterization of Switchgrass histone H3 and CENH3 Genes
Switchgrass is one of the most promising energy crops and only recently has been employed for biofuel production. The draft genome of switchgrass was recently released; however, relatively few switchgrass genes have been functionally characterized. CENH3,

Background: Histones could be released from the nucleus when stimulated. Increasing evidence has shown that extracellular histones are associated with a variety of inflammation and diseases.

Esperanto for histones : CENP-A, not CenH3, is the centromeric histone H3 variant [PDF]
The first centromeric protein identified in any species was CENP-A, a divergent member of the histone H3 family that was recognised by autoantibodies from patients with scleroderma-spectrum disease.

Histone H3 Variants in Trichomonas vaginalis [PDF]
ABSTRACT The parabasalid protist Trichomonas vaginalis is a widespread parasite that affects humans, frequently causing vaginitis in infected women. Trichomonad mitosis is marked by the persistence of the nuclear membrane and the presence of an asymmetric extranuclear spindle with no obvious direct ...
