Decondensing the protamine domain for transcription.
Potentiation is the transition from higher-order, transcriptionally silent chromatin to a less condensed state requisite to accommodating the molecular elements required for transcription. To examine the underlying mechanism of potentiation an approximately 13.7-kb mouse protamine domain of increased nuclease sensitivity flanked by 5' and 3' nuclear matrix attachment regions was defined. The po...
متن کاملChromosome territories, interchromatin domain compartment, and nuclear matrix: an integrated view of the functional nuclear architecture.
Advances in the specific fluorescent labeling of chromatin in fixed and living human cells in combination with three-dimensional (3D) and 4D (space plus time) fluorescence microscopy and image analysis have opened the way for detailed studies of the dynamic, higher-order architecture of chromatin in the human cell nucleus and its potential role in gene regulation. Several features of this archi...
متن کاملIdentification and characterization of nuclear matrix-attachment regions in the human serpin gene cluster at 14q32.1.
Matrix-attachment regions (MARs) are DNA elements that are defined by their abilities to bind to isolated nuclear matrices in vitro. The DNA sequences of different matrix-binding elements vary widely. The locations of some MARs at the ends of chromatin loops suggest that they may represent boundaries of individual chromatin domains. As such, MARs may play important roles in regulating transcrip...
متن کاملConvergence of density-matrix expansions for nuclear interactions.
We extend density-matrix expansions in nuclei to higher orders in derivatives of densities and test their convergence properties. The expansions allow for converting the interaction energies characteristic to finite- and short-range nuclear effective forces into quasilocal density functionals. We also propose a new type of expansion that has excellent convergence properties when benchmarked aga...
متن کاملIn Medium T Matrix with Realistic Nuclear Interactions *
PACS numbers: 21.65.+f The presence of a strong interaction between nucleons at short distances requires the use of resummation methods for many-body calculations in nuclear matter. Besides the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock (BHF) summation of ladder diagrams [1, 2] and advanced variational methods [3, 4], the self-consistent in-medium T -matrix approach became feasible in last years [5, 6, 7, 8, 9]. T...
