Inferring coarse-grain histone-DNA interaction potentials from high-resolution structures of the nucleosome

open access: yes, 2014
The histone-DNA interaction in the nucleosome is a fundamental mechanism of genomic compaction and regulation, which remains largely unkown despite a growing structural knowledge of the complex.

Accessibility of promoter DNA is not the primary determinant of chromatin-mediated gene regulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
DNA accessibility is thought to be of major importance in regulating gene expression. We test this hypothesis using a restriction enzyme as a probe of chromatin structure and as a proxy for transcription factors.

Structural Basis for Recognition of Ubiquitylated Nucleosome by Dot1L Methyltransferase

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
SUMMARY Histone H3 lysine 79 (H3K79) methylation is enriched on actively transcribed genes, and its misregulation is a hallmark of leukemia. Methylation of H3K79, which resides on the structured disk face of the nucleosome, is mediated by the Dot1L ...

Mediator?Nucleosome Interaction [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2000
Mediator, a multiprotein complex involved in the regulation of RNA polymerase II transcription, binds to nucleosomes and acetylates histones. Three lines of evidence identify the Nut1 subunit of Mediator as responsible for the histone acetyltransferase (HAT) activity. An "in-gel" HAT assay reveals a single band of the appropriate size.

Phenotypic profiling of pristane‐induced mimicking human systemic lupus erythematosus in Macaca fascicularis

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Pristane (5 mL/kg) induced a robust systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)‐like phenotype in Macaca fascicularis, marked by elevated antinuclear antibody (ANA) levels and systemic clinical, hematological, and biochemical changes. This model closely reflects human SLE and provides a translational platform for disease studies and therapeutic evaluation ...

Balancing noise and plasticity in gene expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Coupling the control of expression stochasticity (noise) with the capacity to expression change (plasticity) can constrain gene function and limit adaptation. Which factors contribute then to modulate this coupling?

Complementary multi‐omics profiling of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension reveals immune cell alterations, epigenetic changes, and genetically supported candidate genes

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study presents an integrative multi‐omics framework to uncover the molecular mechanisms and potential biomarkers of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Anthropometric and biochemical data were correlated using canonical correlation analysis, revealing key cardiometabolic associations. Single‐cell RNA sequencing identified immune

Transcriptomic validation of a 7,12 Dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA)‐induced leukemia rat model: Parallels with human leukemogenesis

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
7,12‐Dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) could induce leukemia and other types of cancers in rat models. Transcriptomics revealed gene expression profile that parallels with human leukemia. DMBA‐induced differential gene expression could validate the developed rat model.

Structural features based genome-wide characterization and prediction of nucleosome organization

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2012
Background Nucleosome distribution along chromatin dictates genomic DNA accessibility and thus profoundly influences gene expression. However, the underlying mechanism of nucleosome formation remains elusive.

A global function for transcription factors in assisting RNA polymerase II termination. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The role of transcription factors (TFs) on nucleosome positioning, RNA polymerase recruitment, and transcription initiation has been extensively characterized.
