Myc influences global chromatin structure.
The family of myc proto-oncogenes encodes transcription factors (c-, N-, and L-Myc) that regulate cell growth and proliferation and are involved in the etiology of diverse cancers. Myc proteins are thought to function by binding and regulating specific target genes. Here we report that Myc proteins are required for the widespread maintenance of active chromatin. Disruption of N-myc in neuronal ...
متن کاملGlycolytic metabolism influences global chromatin structure
Metabolic rewiring, specifically elevated glycolytic metabolism is a hallmark of cancer. Global chromatin structure regulates gene expression, DNA repair, and also affects cancer progression. But the interrelationship between tumor metabolism and chromatin architecture remain unclear. Here we show that increased glycolysis in cancer cells promotes an open chromatin configuration. Using compleme...
متن کاملAn active chromatin structure acquired by translocated c-myc genes.
We used general sensitivity to DNase I digestion to analyze the chromatin structure of c-myc genes in seven murine plasmacytomas. In every case, the 3' portion of c-myc juxtaposed with C alpha displayed a much more DNase I-sensitive chromatin structure than untranslocated c-myc or, in one case analyzed, the reciprocally translocated 5' portion. Our data suggest the presence of regulatory sequen...
متن کاملDistal chromatin structure influences local nucleosome positions and gene expression
The positions of nucleosomes across the genome influence several cellular processes, including gene transcription. However, our understanding of the factors dictating where nucleosomes are located and how this affects gene regulation is still limited. Here, we perform an extensive in vivo study to investigate the influence of the neighboring chromatin structure on local nucleosome positioning a...
متن کاملLocal balancing influences global structure in social networks.
A lthough social networks can often be viewed as graphs in their most basic form, many networks of interest include explicit sentiments (positive or negative views) of the nodes (constituent entities, also known as vertices) toward each other. This is particularly the case in geopolitics, settings where networks of firms compete in the creation of standards, and situations where polarization is...
