Analysis of nucleosome repositioning by yeast ISWI and Chd1 chromatin remodeling complexes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
ISWI proteins form the catalytic core of a subset of ATP-dependent chromatin remodelling activities in eukaryotes from yeast to man. Many of these complexes have been found to reposition nucleosomes, but with different directionalities.

Disruption of ARID1B Recruitment to the Nuclear Pore Complex as a New Anticancer Therapeutic Strategy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies ARID1B as a chromatin‐bound driver of tumor growth in TNBC. ARID1B impairs ARID1A function and directly activates oncogenic programs through SWI/SNF remodeling. Its nuclear localization, mediated by the KPNA2–KPNB1–RANBP2 import machinery, is essential for its tumor‐promoting activity.

Histone modifications influence the action of Snf2 family remodelling enzymes by different mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Alteration of chromatin structure by chromatin modifying and remodelling activities is a key stage in the regulation of many nuclear processes. These activities are frequently interlinked, and many chromatin remodelling enzymes contain motifs that ...

Comprehensive Characterization of Bihormonal Cells and Endocrine Cell Lineages in Mammalian Pancreatic Islets

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study integrates dual‐reporter genetics, imaging flow cytometry, and single‐cell sequencing to characterize rare bihormonal cells in mouse and human pancreatic islets. Gcg⁺Ins⁺ cells resemble α‐cells rather than transitional states. Cross‐species gene network analysis refines islet cell taxonomy and reveals human‐specific δ‐cell subtypes ...

Structural basis of the nucleosome transition during RNA polymerase II passage

open access: yesScience, 2018
Nucleosomal DNA transcription In eukaryotes, the basic chromatin unit nucleosome stalls RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) when it transcribes genetic information on DNA. Using cryo–electron microscopy, Kujirai et al.

Quantitative Analysis of Single-Molecule Force Spectroscopy on Folded Chromatin Fibers

open access: yes, 2015
Single-molecule techniques allow for picoNewton manipulation and nanometer accuracy measurements of single chromatin fibers. However, the complexity of the data, the heterogeneity of the composition of individual fibers and the relatively large ...

DNA folding: structural and mechanical properties of the two-angle model for chromatin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We present a theoretical analysis of the structural and mechanical properties of the 30-nm chromatin fiber. Our study is based on the two-angle model introduced by Woodcock et al. (Woodcock, C. L., S. A. Grigoryev, R. A. Horowitz, and N. Whitaker.

Genomic Variation Underpins Genetic Divergence and Differing Salt Resilience in Sesbania bispinosa

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sesbania, a leguminous halophyte, thrives in saline soils. Comparative genomics reveals key genomic variations—particularly chromosomal inversions—are identified as contributors to population differentiation and salt resilience. These findings advance the understanding of genomic variation driving evolution and phenotypic differentiation and offer ...

NUCOME: A comprehensive database of nucleosome organization referenced landscapes in mammalian genomes

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2021
Background Nucleosome organization is involved in many regulatory activities in various organisms. However, studies integrating nucleosome organization in mammalian genomes are very limited mainly due to the lack of comprehensive data quality control (QC)
