DNA mediated chromatin pull-down for the study of chromatin replication
Chromatin replication involves duplicating DNA while maintaining epigenetic information. These processes are critical for genome stability and for preserving cell-type identity. Here we describe a simple experimental approach that allows chromatin to be captured and its content analysed after in vivo replication and labeling of DNA by cellular DNA polymerases. We show that this technique is hig...
متن کاملChromatin and DNA replication.
The size of a eukaryotic genome presents a unique challenge to the cell: package and organize the DNA to fit within the confines of the nucleus while at the same time ensuring sufficient dynamics to allow access to specific sequences and features such as genes and regulatory elements. This is achieved via the dynamic nucleoprotein organization of eukaryotic DNA into chromatin. The basic unit of...
متن کاملChromatin dynamics during DNA replication.
Chromatin is composed of DNA and histones, which provide a unified platform for regulating DNA-related processes, mostly through their post-translational modification. During DNA replication, histone arrangement is perturbed, first to allow progression of DNA polymerase and then during repackaging of the replicated DNA. To study how DNA replication influences the pattern of histone modification...
متن کاملChromatin remodeling and initiation of DNA replication.
While much has been learned in recent years about the process of chromatin remodeling and its role in activation of transcription, relatively little has been reported on the role of chromatin remodeling in DNA replication. However, it is well established that transcription factors and chromatin structure play an important role in replication origin usage. Recent work has begun to indicate that ...
متن کاملAnalysis of chromatin integrity and DNA damage of buffalo spermatozoa
This study was conducted to determine chromatin integrity and DNA damage by DNA electrophoresis and comet assays of buffalo fresh and frozen semen. Semen samples were collected from four buffalo bulls and evaluated after freezing for semen motility, viability, sperm abnormalities, chromatin integrity and DNA damage. A significant variation was found in semen parameters after thawing. Highly sig...
