ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling during mammalian development.
Precise gene expression ensures proper stem and progenitor cell differentiation, lineage commitment and organogenesis during mammalian development. ATP-dependent chromatin-remodeling complexes utilize the energy from ATP hydrolysis to reorganize chromatin and, hence, regulate gene expression. These complexes contain diverse subunits that together provide a multitude of functions, from early emb...
متن کاملHistone modifications during mammalian oocyte maturation: dynamics, regulation and functions.
Histone modifications are associated with many fundamental biological processes in cells. An emerging notion from recent studies is that meiosis stage-dependent histone modifications are crucial for the oocyte development in mammals. In this paper, we review the changes and regulation as well as functions of histone modifications during meiotic maturation of mammalian oocyte, with particular em...
متن کاملFunctions of miRNAs during Mammalian Heart Development
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play essential roles during mammalian heart development and have emerged as attractive therapeutic targets for cardiovascular diseases. The mammalian embryonic heart is mainly derived from four major cell types during development. These include cardiomyocytes, endocardial cells, epicardial cells, and neural crest cells. Recent data have identified various miRNAs as critical r...
متن کاملAnalysis of Histone Exchange during Chromatin Purification.
Central to the study of chromosome biology are techniques that permit the purification of small chromatin sections for analysis of associated DNA and proteins, including histones. Chromatin purification protocols vary greatly in the extent of chemical cross-linking used to prevent protein dissociation/re-association during isolation. Particularly for genome-wide analyses, chromatin purification...
متن کاملIn vivo incorporation of Drosophila H2a histone into mammalian chromatin.
Hybrid prokaryotic/eukaryotic expression vectors have been used to introduce Drosophila histone genes into CV-1 African green monkey tissue culture cells. Transfection of CV-1 cells with Drosophila genes under the control of insect DNA promoter sequences results in low level expression of histone genes. On the other hand, when the Drosophila H2a gene is juxtaposed downstream from the long termi...
