Potential antifungal targets based on histones post-translational modifications against invasive aspergillosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
As a primary cause of death in patients with hematological malignancies and transplant recipients, invasive aspergillosis (IA) is a condition that warrants attention.

Nuclear processes associated with plant immunity and pathogen susceptibility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Plants are sessile organisms that have evolved exquisite and sophisticated mechanisms to adapt to their biotic and abiotic environment. Plants deploy receptors and vast signalling networks to detect, transmit and respond to a given biotic threat by ...

Histone Mutants Separate R Loop Formation from Genome Instability Induction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
R loops have positive physiological roles, but they can also be deleterious by causing genome instability, and the mechanisms for this are unknown. Here we identified yeast histone H3 and H4 mutations that facilitate R loops but do not cause instability.

Characterization of histone acylations links chromatin modifications with metabolism

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
A number of histone lysine modifications related to acetylation have been identified, but their functional significance is unclear. Here, the authors use in vitro and in vivo assays to characterize eight acyl histone post-translational modifications and ...

Post-translational histone modifications associated with the development of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease. Part 1. General provisions

open access: yesGastroenterologìa
Based on the analysis of literary sources of PubMed, MedLine, The Cochrane Library, EMBASE database, the authors of the article give general provisions regarding post-translational modifications of histones (small proteins with a molecular weight of 10 ...

Multiplex giant magnetoresistive biosensor microarrays identify interferon-associated autoantibodies in systemic lupus erythematosus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
High titer, class-switched autoantibodies are a hallmark of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Dysregulation of the interferon (IFN) pathway is observed in individuals with active SLE, although the association of specific autoantibodies with chemokine ...

Histone H2A variants play a key role at DNA double-strand breaks during repair pathway choice

open access: yesFrontiers in Epigenetics and Epigenomics
Histone post-translational modifications and variants play crucial roles in the adaptability of chromatin structure, facilitating rapid responses necessary for biological processes such as transcription, replication, and DNA damage signaling.

Microbiota derived short chain fatty acids promote histone crotonylation in the colon through histone deacetylases

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Histone post-translational modifications are known key regulators of gene expression. Here, the authors characterize histone crotonylation at histone H3 lysine 18 in intestinal epithelia and find that it is a highly dynamic cell cycle regulated mark ...

Histone Modifications and the Maintenance of Telomere Integrity

open access: yesCells, 2019
Telomeres, the nucleoprotein structures at the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes, play an integral role in protecting linear DNA from degradation. Dysregulation of telomeres can result in genomic instability and has been implicated in increased rates of ...
