Histones present on the surface of late apoptotic cells induce RAGE-mediated phagocytosis [PDF]
Cell Communication and SignalingThe receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is a multiligand receptor that can induce phagocytosis in both professional and nonprofessional phagocytes.

Structural analysis of OCT4 binding to human LIN28B nucleosomes [PDF]
Scientific ReportsStructural studies of nucleosomes most commonly involve histones from Xenopus species or humans. Yet, the effect of subtle differences in the amino acid sequences of these histones on key aspects of structure, such as nucleosome assembly, DNA positioning,

Rapid purification of recombinant histones. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The development of methods to assemble nucleosomes from recombinant histones decades ago has transformed chromatin research. Nevertheless, nucleosome reconstitution remains time consuming to this day, not least because the four individual histones must ...

Redox Biochemistry and Chemistry, 2023 In the nucleus, histones are essential in the packaging of DNA and the regulation of gene expression. These histones can also be released to the extracellular space by mechanisms such as necrosis and neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation ...

In vitro interactions of extracellular histones with LDL suggest a potential pro-atherogenic role. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Nuclear histones have previously been shown to aggregate LDL in vitro, suggestive of a possible pro-atherogenic role. Recent studies indicate that histones are released during acute inflammation, and therefore might interact with circulating lipoproteins

Domain Model Explains Propagation Dynamics and Stability of Histone H3K27 and H3K36 Methylation Landscapes [PDF]
, 2020 Chromatin states must be maintained during cell proliferation to uphold cellular identity and genome integrity. Inheritance of histone modifications is central in this process. However, the histone modification landscape is challenged by incorporation of

Biomedicines, 2022 Histones have a specific key role in the remodeling of chromatin and gene transcription. In the blood, free histones are damage-connected proteins. Myelin basic protein (MBP) is the major component of the myelin-proteolipid sheath of axons.

Structure and function of archaeal histones. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2018 The genomes of all organisms throughout the tree of life are compacted and organized in chromatin by association of chromatin proteins. Eukaryotic genomes encode histones, which are assembled on the genome into octamers, yielding nucleosomes.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Histones are small polycationic proteins located in the cell nucleus. Together, DNA and histones are integral constituents of the nucleosomes. Upon apoptosis, necrosis and infection - induced cell death, histones are released from the cell.

Nucleus-specific linker histones Hho1 and Mlh1 form distinct protein interactions during growth, starvation and development in Tetrahymena thermophila [PDF]
, 2019 Chromatin organization influences most aspects of gene expression regulation. The linker histone H1, along with the core histones, is a key component of eukaryotic chromatin.
