A study of strong nucleosomes in the human genome

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: Micrococcal nuclease (MNase) is widely used to map nucleosomes. However, nucleosomes are highly dynamic and susceptible to experimental conditions, resulting in extreme variability across nucleosome maps, which complicates the generation of ...

Fine Chromatin-Driven Mechanism of Transcription Interference by Antisense Noncoding Transcription

open access: yesCell Reports, 2020
Summary: Eukaryotic genomes are almost entirely transcribed by RNA polymerase II. Consequently, the transcription of long noncoding RNAs often overlaps with coding gene promoters, triggering potential gene repression through a poorly characterized ...

SF3B1 Association with Chromatin Determines Splicing Outcomes

open access: yesCell Reports, 2015
Much remains unknown concerning the mechanism by which the splicing machinery pinpoints short exons within intronic sequences and how splicing factors are directed to their pre-mRNA targets.

RSC remodeling of oligo-nucleosomes: an atomic force microscopy study [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2010
RSC is an essential chromatin remodeling factor that is required for the control of several processes including transcription, repair and replication. The ability of RSC to relocate centrally positioned mononucleosomes at the end of nucleosomal DNA is firmly established, but the data on RSC action on oligo-nucleosomal templates remains still scarce.

Substantial histone reduction modulates genomewide nucleosomal occupancy and global transcriptional output.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2011
The basic unit of genome packaging is the nucleosome, and nucleosomes have long been proposed to restrict DNA accessibility both to damage and to transcription. Nucleosome number in cells was considered fixed, but recently aging yeast and mammalian cells

The octamer is the major form of CENP-A nucleosomes at human centromeres

open access: yesNature Structural &Molecular Biology, 2013
The centromere is the chromosomal locus that ensures fidelity in genome transmission at cell division. Centromere protein A (CENP-A) is a histone H3 variant that specifies centromere location independently of DNA sequence.

Chromatin Profiles of Chromosomally Integrated Human Herpesvirus-6A

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Human herpesvirus-6A (HHV-6A) and 6B (HHV-6B) are two closely related betaherpesviruses that are associated with various diseases including seizures and encephalitis.
