Combinatorial chromatin modifications and memory storage: a code for memory?
Gene transcription and long-term memory storage have been linked in experiments going back for more than 30 years, but the molecular mechanisms responsible for the regulation of gene expression during memory consolidation remain the subject of intense investigation. Much work has focused on the role of individual transcription factors, such as cAMP-response elementbinding protein (CREB) or nucl...
متن کاملDiscovering Cooperative Relationships of Chromatin Modifications in Human T Cells Based on a Proposed Closeness Measure
BACKGROUND Eukaryotic transcription is accompanied by combinatorial chromatin modifications that serve as functional epigenetic markers. Composition of chromatin modifications specifies histone codes that regulate the associated gene. Discovering novel chromatin regulatory relationships are of general interest. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Based on the premise that the interaction of chroma...
متن کاملEpigenetic regulation of memory: implications in human cognitive disorders.
Epigenetic modification of chromatin structure is an important mechanism in the regulation of gene expression. Recent studies have shown that dynamic regulation of chromatin structure occurs in response to neuronal stimulation associated with learning and memory. Learning-induced chromatin modifications include DNA methylation, histone acetylation, histone phosphorylation and histone methylatio...
متن کاملGenome-wide analysis of histone modifications in latently HIV-1 infected T cells
OBJECTIVES The transcriptional silencing of HIV type 1 (HIV-1) provirus in latently infected cells is a major hurdle on the pathway to HIV-1 elimination. The epigenetic mechanisms established by histone modifications may affect the transcriptional silencing of HIV-1 and viral latency. A systematic epigenome profiling could be applicable to develop new epigenetic diagnostic markers for detecting...
متن کاملOrdered Cooperative Functions of PRMT1, p300, and CARM1 in Transcriptional Activation by p53
Transcriptional coactivators that modify histones represent an increasingly important group of regulatory factors, although their ability to modify other factors as well precludes common assumptions that they necessarily act by histone modification. In an extension of previous studies showing a role for acetyltransferase p300/CBP in p53 function, we have used systems reconstituted with recombin...
