The Rpd3 Core Complex Is a Chromatin Stabilization Module
The S. cerevisiae Rpd3 large (Rpd3L) and small (Rpd3S) histone deacetylase (HDAC) complexes are prototypes for understanding transcriptional repression in eukaryotes [1]. The current view is that they function by deacetylating chromatin, thereby limiting accessibility of transcriptional factors to the underlying DNA. However, an Rpd3 catalytic mutant retains substantial repression capability wh...
متن کاملStress-free with Rpd3: a unique chromatin complex mediates the response to oxidative stress.
Eukaryotic cells are constantly bombarded with a plethora of extracellular and intracellular stresses that they must quickly respond to in order to survive (1). These stresses can come in the form of changes in temperature, nutrient availability, osmotic changes, and DNA-damaging events (extracellular), as well as oxidative stress from normal metabolism and replicative/transcriptional DNA damag...
متن کاملStabilization of Chromatin Structure by PRC1, a Polycomb Complex
The Polycomb group (PcG) genes are required for maintenance of homeotic gene repression during development. Mutations in these genes can be suppressed by mutations in genes of the SWI/SNF family. We have purified a complex, termed PRC1 (Polycomb repressive complex 1), that contains the products of the PcG genes Polycomb, Posterior sex combs, polyhomeotic, Sex combs on midleg, and several other ...
متن کاملThe Chromosomal Passenger Complex Is Required for Chromatin-Induced Microtubule Stabilization and Spindle Assembly
In cells lacking centrosomes, such as those found in female meiosis, chromosomes must nucleate and stabilize microtubules in order to form a bipolar spindle. Here we report the identification of Dasra A and Dasra B, two new components of the vertebrate chromosomal passenger complex containing Incenp, Survivin, and the kinase Aurora B, and demonstrate that this complex is required for chromatin-...
متن کاملHistone deacetylase Rpd3 antagonizes Sir2-dependent silent chromatin propagation
In the eukaryotic genome, transcriptionally silent chromatin tends to propagate along a chromosome and encroach upon adjacent active chromatin. The silencing machinery can be stopped by chromatin boundary elements. We performed a screen in Saccharomyces cerevisiae for proteins that may contribute to the establishment of a chromatin boundary. We found that disruption of histone deacetylase Rpd3p...
