Organization of Transcriptionally Active and Inactive Chromatin
Der Aufbau des Nukleosoms als Grundbaustein des Chromatins der Eukaryontenzelle, mit Ausnahme des Dinoflagellaten-Zellkerns, wird biochemisch und elektronenmikroskopisch vorgestellt als eine Einheit eines Oktamers aus Histonen (2 X H2A, 2XH2B, 2X H3, 2X H4) und einem Betrag von etwa 150 Basenpaaren DNA. Diese Partikel sind durch einen Zwischenbereich von weiteren etwa 50 Basenpaaren DNA verbund...
متن کاملCharacterisation of transcriptionally active and inactive chromatin domains in neurons.
The tandemly organised ribosomal DNA (rDNA) repeats are transcribed by a dedicated RNA polymerase in a specialised nuclear compartment, the nucleolus. There appears to be an intimate link between the maintenance of nucleolar structure and the presence of heterochromatic chromatin domains. This is particularly evident in many large neurons, where a single nucleolus is present, which is separated...
متن کاملInter-MAR Association Contributes to Transcriptionally Active Looping Events in Human β-globin Gene Cluster
Matrix attachment regions (MARs) are important in chromatin organization and gene regulation. Although it is known that there are a number of MAR elements in the beta-globin gene cluster, it is unclear that how these MAR elements are involved in regulating beta-globin genes expression. Here, we report the identification of a new MAR element at the LCR (locus control region) of human beta-globin...
متن کاملRibosomal RNA gene repeats, their stability and cellular senescence
The ribosomal RNA gene (rDNA) repeats form a historically well-researched region in the chromosome. Their highly repetitive structure can be identified easily which has enabled studies on DNA replication, recombination, and transcription. The region is one of the most unstable regions in the genome because of deleterious recombination among the repeats. The ribosomal RNA gene repeats use a uniq...
متن کاملThe human XIST gene: analysis of a 17 kb inactive X-specific RNA that contains conserved repeats and is highly localized within the nucleus.
X chromosome inactivation in mammalian females results in the cis-limited transcriptional inactivity of most of the genes on one X chromosome. The XIST gene is unique among X-linked genes in being expressed exclusively from the inactive X chromosome. Human XIST cDNAs containing at least eight exons and totaling 17 kb have been isolated and sequenced within the region on the X chromosome known t...
