Chromatin structure and transposable elements in organismal aging
Epigenetic regulatory mechanisms are increasingly appreciated as central to a diverse array of biological processes, including aging. An association between heterochromatic silencing and longevity has long been recognized in yeast, and in more recent years evidence has accumulated of age-related chromatin changes in Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila, and mouse model systems, as well as in the ...
متن کاملDNA torsion as a feedback mediator of transcription and chromatin dynamics
The double helical structure of DNA lends itself to topological constraints. Many DNA-based processes alter the topological state of DNA, generating torsional stress, which is efficiently relieved by topoisomerases. Maintaining this topological balance is crucial to cell survival, as excessive torsional strain risks DNA damage. Here, we review the mechanisms that generate and modulate DNA torsi...
متن کاملLectins as probes of chromatin structure. Binding of concanavalin A to purified rat liver chromatin.
Concanavalin A (Con A) binds specifically to rat liver chromatin. The extent of binding is directly proportional to both chromatin and concanavalin A concentration. It is reversible and inhibited by specific sugars for which concanavalin A has a binding site. Scatchard analysis reveals the presence of one type of Con A-binding site, with an apparent dissociation constant of 3 X 10(-7) M. A maxi...
متن کاملtranslating allusive devices:a survey of a portrait of the artist as a young man by james joyce
تلمیح یکی از عناصری است که تقریباً در همه ی متون ادبی یافت و باعث ایجاد شکاف های فرهنگی می شود. در این تحقیق به عنوان شکلی از بینامتنیت در ترجمه مورد توجه قرار می گیرد. تلاش شده است تا راهکارهای مترجمان برای ترجمه چهار نوع اسامی خاص و عبارات کلیدی تلمیحی (مذهبی، سیاسی، تاریخی و اسطوره ای) موجود در رمانِ چهره مرد هنرمند در جوانی به فارسی بررسی شود. این تحقیق مقایسه ای بر اساس راهکارهای ترجمه تلمیح...
15 صفحه اولHistone modifications influence mediator interactions with chromatin
The Mediator complex transmits activation signals from DNA bound transcription factors to the core transcription machinery. Genome wide localization studies have demonstrated that Mediator occupancy not only correlates with high levels of transcription, but that the complex also is present at transcriptionally silenced locations. We provide evidence that Mediator localization is guided by an in...
