Lysosome-mediated processing of chromatin in senescence [PDF]

, 2013
Cellular senescence is a stable proliferation arrest, a potent tumor suppressor mechanism, and a likely contributor to tissue aging. Cellular senescence involves extensive cellular remodeling, including of chromatin structure. Autophagy and lysosomes are

LSD1 demethylates histone and non-histone proteins [PDF]

Epigenetics, 2009
One of the key breakthroughs in the epigenetics/chromatin field in the last several years was the identification of enzymes capable of removing the methyl group from methylated lysines in histone proteins. Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) was the first such enzyme identified, which has been shown to demethylate histone H3 on lysine 4 (H3K4) and ...

The role of histone modifications in transcription regulation upon DNA damage

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review discusses the critical role of histone modifications in regulating gene expression during the DNA damage response (DDR). By modulating chromatin structure and recruiting repair factors, these post‐translational modifications fine‐tune transcriptional programmes to maintain genomic stability.

AIP1 is a novel Agenet/Tudor domain protein from Arabidopsis that interacts with regulators of DNA replication, transcription and chromatin remodeling [PDF]

, 2015
Background: DNA replication and transcription are dynamic processes regulating plant development that are dependent on the chromatin accessibility. Proteins belonging to the Agenet/Tudor domain family are known as histone modification "readers" and ...

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...

Multiple Sclerosis: Enzymatic Cross Site-Specific Recognition and Hydrolysis of H3 Histone by IgGs against H3, H1, H2A, H2B, H4 Histones, Myelin Basic Protein, and DNA

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.

Controlling histone methylation via trans-histone pathways [PDF]

Epigenetics, 2008
Covalent post-translational modifications of histones have been demonstrated to participate in a wide array of cellular processes, including regulation of gene transcription, gene repression, DNA double strand break repair and mitosis. Regulation of how these covalent modifications, and the implications of this regulation, are currently of great ...

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.
