Recent studies have uncovered a specific role of TET proteins in reprogramming somatic cells to induced pluripotent stem cells, a process where O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine transferase may play a crucial role.

Chlamydia, comprising several human and zoonotic pathogens, is a genus of the conserved bacterial phylum Chlamydiota. Their obligate intracellular niche serves as a barrier for natural genetic exchange via horizontal gene transfer (HGT), and further ...

The ten-eleven translocation (TET) family (TET1/2/3) initiates conversion of 5-methylcytosine to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine, thereby orchestrating the DNA demethylation process and changes in epigenetic marks during early embryogenesis.

The emergence of high-level tigecycline resistance mediated by plasmid-borne tet(X) genes greatly threatens the clinical effectiveness of tigecycline. However, the dissemination pattern of plasmid-borne tet(X) genes remains unclear. We here recovered tet(

An Epigenetic Tet a Tet with Pluripotency [PDF]
DNA and chromatin-modifying enzymes establish an ESC/iPSC-specific epigenomic landscape that is linked to a network of pluripotency genes and influences differentiation potential. In this issue of Cell Stem Cell, Koh et al. (2011) highlight Tet1 and Tet2 as key players in this network of coordinated genetic and epigenetic control.

Mutations in the enzyme isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) lead to metabolic alterations and a sustained formation of 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG). 2-HG is an oncometabolite as it inhibits the activity of α-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases such as ten ...

Comprehensive mapping of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine epigenetic dynamics in axon regeneration
In contrast to central nervous system neurons, dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons can switch to a regenerative state after peripheral axotomy. In a screen for chromatin regulators of the regenerative responses in this conditioning lesion paradigm, we ...

The tet(X4) gene is a clinically important tigecycline resistance gene and has shown high persistence in livestock-related environments. However, the bacterial hosts of tet(X4) remain unknown due to the lack of appropriate approaches.

DNA hypermethylation in disease: mechanisms and clinical relevance
Increasing numbers of studies implicate abnormal DNA methylation in cancer and many non-malignant diseases. This is consistent with numerous findings about differentiation-associated changes in DNA methylation at promoters, enhancers, gene bodies, and ...
