Polyubiquitylation of histone H2B.
Covalent modification of histones by ubiquitylation is a prominent epigenetic mark that features in a variety of chromatin-based events such as histone methylation, gene silencing, and repair of DNA damage. The prototypical example of histone ubiquitylation is that of histone H2B in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In this case, attachment of ubiquitin to lysine 123 (K123) of H2B is important for regu...
متن کاملCell-cycle regulation of a human histone H2b gene is mediated by the H2b subtype-specific consensus element.
Mammalian histone gene transcription is increased approximately fivefold during the transition from the G1 phase to the S phase of the cell cycle. In this study, we present a detailed in vivo analysis of the human histone H2b promoter, which establishes that transcriptional regulation of this gene is mediated by a subtype-specific consensus element containing the core octanucleotide ATTTGCAT. O...
متن کاملHistone H2B monoubiquitination: roles to play in human malignancy.
Ubiquitination has traditionally been viewed in the context of polyubiquitination that is essential for marking proteins for degradation via the proteasome. Recent discoveries have shed light on key cellular roles for monoubiquitination, including as a post-translational modification (PTM) of histones such as histone H2B. Monoubiquitination plays a significant role as one of the largest histone...
متن کاملDNA hypomethylation and germ cell-specific expression of testis-specific H2B histone gene.
Testis-specific H2B (TH2B) histone gene of rat is expressed during meiotic event of spermatogenic differentiation. The gene is unusual in that it has conserved the regulatory elements involved in the S phase-specific transcription of somatic H2B genes as well as the S phase-specific stabilization of histone mRNA. Genomic sequencing revealed that all analyzed CpG sites in the promoter region of ...
متن کاملHistone H2B C-terminal helix mediates trans-histone H3K4 methylation independent of H2B ubiquitination.
The trans-histone regulatory cross talk between H2BK123 ubiquitination (H2Bub1) and H3K4 and H3K79 methylation is not fully understood. In this study, we report that the residues arginine 119 and threonine 122 in the H2B C-terminal helix are important for transcription and cell growth and play a direct role in controlling H2Bub1 and H3K4 methylation. These residues modulate H2Bub1 levels by con...
