Reciprocal intronic and exonic histone modification regions in humans. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
While much attention has been focused on chromatin at promoters and exons, human genes are mostly composed of intronic sequences. Analyzing published surveys of nucleosomes and 41 chromatin marks in humans, we identified histone modifications ...

Interaction of the pioneer transcription factor GATA3 with nucleosomes

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
During cellular reprogramming, the pioneer transcription factor GATA3 binds chromatin, and in a context-dependent manner directs local chromatin remodeling and enhancer formation.

Nucleosome Switches [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2008
We present a statistical-mechanical model for the positioning of nucleosomes along genomic DNA molecules as a function of the strength of the binding potential and the chemical potential of the nucleosomes. We show that a significant section of the DNA is composed of two-level nucleosome switching regions where the nucleosome distribution undergoes a ...

Inter-nucleosomal potentials from nucleosomal positioning data

open access: yesThe European Physical Journal E, 2022
AbstractNo systematic method exists to derive inter-nucleosomal potentials between nucleosomes along a chromosome consistently across a given genome. Such potentials can yield information on nucleosomal ordering, thermal as well as mechanical properties of chromosomes.

Cellular uptake of extracellular nucleosomes induces innate immune responses by binding and activating cGMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
The nucleosome is the basic structural repeating unit of chromatin. DNA damage and cell apoptosis release nucleosomes into the blood circulatory system, and increased levels of circulating nucleosomes have been observed to be related to inflammation and ...

A species-specific nucleosomal signature defines a periodic distribution of amino acids in proteins [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2015
Nucleosomes are the basic structural units of chromatin. Most of the yeast genome is organized in a pattern of positioned nucleosomes that is stably maintained under a wide range of physiological conditions.

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.

Nucleosome Positioning, Nucleosome Spacing and the Nucleosome Code [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biomolecular Structure and Dynamics, 2010
Nucleosome positioning has been the subject of intense study for many years. The properties of micrococcal nuclease, the enzyme central to these studies, are discussed. The various methods used to determine nucleosome positions in vitro and in vivo are reviewed critically.

EXTRACELLULAR DNA AND THE LEVEL OF ITS METHYLATION IN DIFFERENT RHEUMATIC DISEASES

open access: yesНаучно-практическая ревматология, 2012
Objective: to study the qualitative and quantitative composition of serum extracellular DNA (exDNA); apoptotic (nucleosomes) and necrotic fragmentation; complexification of monometinic proteins with exDNA; and the levels of exDNA methylation as compared ...
