Histone ubiquitylation and chromatin dynamics.
Histones are subject to several post-translational modifications, which act to regulate gene expression and other processes on the DNA template. One such modification is the addition of a single ubiquitin moiety, which has been reported to influence chromatin dynamics and exhibit cross-talk with other histone modifications. Mono-ubiquitylation of H2B has been reported in eukaryotes as divergent...
متن کاملThe archaeal histone-fold protein HMf organizes DNA into bona fide chromatin fibers.
BACKGROUND The discovery of histone-like proteins in Archaea urged studies into the possible organization of archaeal genomes in chromatin. Despite recent advances, a variety of structural questions remain unanswered. RESULTS We have used the atomic force microscope (AFM) with traditional nuclease digestion assays to compare the structure of nucleoprotein complexes reconstituted from tandemly...
متن کاملHistone acetylation: a switch between repressive and permissive chromatin. Second in review series on chromatin dynamics.
The organization of eukaryotic chromatin has a major impact on all nuclear processes involving DNA substrates. Gene expression is affected by the positioning of individual nucleosomes relative to regulatory sequence elements, by the folding of the nucleosomal fiber into higher-order structures and by the compartmentalization of functional domains within the nucleus. Because site-specific acetyl...
متن کاملLinker histone variants control chromatin dynamics during early embryogenesis.
Complex transitions in chromatin structure produce changes in genome function during development in metazoa. Linker histones, the last component of nucleosomes to be assembled into chromatin, comprise considerably divergent subtypes as compared with core histones. In all metazoa studied, their composition changes dramatically during early embryogenesis concomitant with zygotic gene activation, ...
متن کاملHistone modifications and chromatin dynamics: a focus on filamentous fungi
The readout of the genetic information of eukaryotic organisms is significantly regulated by modifications of DNA and chromatin proteins. Chromatin alterations induce genome-wide and local changes in gene expression and affect a variety of processes in response to internal and external signals during growth, differentiation, development, in metabolic processes, diseases, and abiotic and biotic ...
