Increased body mass index is linked to systemic inflammation through altered chromatin co-accessibility in human preadipocytes

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Obesity-induced adipose tissue dysfunction can cause low-grade inflammation and downstream obesity comorbidities. Although preadipocytes may contribute to this pro-inflammatory environment, the underlying mechanisms are unclear.

Open Chromatin and Hypertranscription in Embryonic Stem Cells [PDF]

open access: yesCell Stem Cell, 2008
In this issue of Cell Stem Cell, Efroni et al. (2008) use tiling microarrays to reveal genome-wide hypertranscription in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs), including expression of normally silent, noncoding regions. Hypertranscription may reflect the unusual "open" structure of ESC chromatin.

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.

Keys to Open Chromatin for Transcription Activation: FACT and Asf1 [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2009
In this issue of Molecular Cell, Takahata et al. (2009) dissect the mechanisms preceding transcription initiation, revealing a wave of nucleosome eviction, which spreads from distant cis-regulatory elements to promoters and which requires the activity of histone chaperones, FACT and Asf1.

Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Function of the upstream activating factor in chromatin structure organization and transcriptional regulation at the yeast ribosomal DNA

open access: yes, 2010
Chromatin is the template of all processes involved in DNA metabolism in the eukaryotic cell. Accordingly, chromatin is a dynamic structure which changes in its composition and posttranslational modification correlating with the functional state of a ...

Ultrastructural analysis of chromatin in meiosis I plus II of rye (Secale cereale L.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) proves to be an appropriate technique for imaging chromatin organization in meiosis I and II of rye (Secale cereale) down to a resolution of a few nanometers.

Enclosing Chromatin: Reassembly of the Nucleus after Open Mitosis [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2013
During mitosis in vertebrate cells, the nuclear envelope undergoes extensive structural reorganization, starting with the retraction of nuclear membranes into the ER at mitotic onset and ending with the re-enclosure of chromatin by ER-derived membranes during mitotic exit. Here, we review our current understanding of postmitotic nuclear assembly.

Rab14 regulates the transport of human papillomavirus to the trans‐Golgi network for infectious cell entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.

Global chromatin architecture reflects pluripotency and lineage commitment in the early mouse embryo. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
An open chromatin architecture devoid of compact chromatin is thought to be associated with pluripotency in embryonic stem cells. Establishing this distinct epigenetic state may also be required for somatic cell reprogramming.
