Chemical approaches for studying histone modifications.
Histones form the protein core around which genomic DNA is wrapped in eukaryotic chromatin. Numerous genetic studies have established that the structure and transcriptional state of chromatin are closely related to histone post-translational modifications. Further elucidation of the precise mechanistic roles for individual histone modifications requires the ability to isolate and study homogene...
متن کاملQuantitative Proteomic Approaches to Studying Histone Modifications
Histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) positively and negatively regulate gene expression, and are consequently a vital influence on the genomic profile of all eukaryotic species. The study of histone PTMs using classical methods in molecular biology, such as immunofluorescence and Western blotting, is challenging given the technical issues of the approaches, and chemical diversity and...
متن کاملP-98: Effect of Mouse Embryo Vitrification on Histone Modifications
Background: Vitrification has been usually used as an assisted reproductive technology in animals and humans. This method needs high concentrations of cryoprotectants that can be toxic with high cooling degrees. Then, vitrification could be change histone modifications such as methylation and acetylation can performance as regulatory controls of gene transcription. So, the purpose of the presen...
متن کاملChemical approaches to mapping the function of post-translational modifications.
Strategies for the chemical construction of synthetic proteins with precisely positioned post-translational modifications or their mimics offer a powerful method for dissecting the complexity of functional protein alteration and the associated complexity of proteomes.
متن کاملCrosstalk among Histone Modifications
Histone modifications play a complex role in the regulation of transcription. Recent studies (Duncan et al., 2008; Lee et al., 2007; Li et al., 2008) reveal that regulation of histone modifications can be functionally linked to reinforce the activation or repression of gene expression.
