The Saccharomyces cerevisiae transcription factor Spt20/Ada5 was originally identified by mutations that suppress Ty insertion alleles and by mutations that suppress the toxicity caused by Gal4-VP16 overexpression. Here we present evidence for physical associations between Spt20/Ada5 and three other Spt proteins, suggesting that they exist in a complex. A related study demonstrates that this co...
Genetic polymorphism of erythrocyte adenosine deaminase (ADA) was first described by Spencer et al. in 1968 [1]. Its three phenotypes, ADA 1, ADA 2, and ADA 2-1, were found to represent the homozygous or heterozygous expression of two allelic genes at the ADA autosomal locus. Subsequent studies revealed several rare phenotypes representing heterozygosity for either the ADA1 or ADA2 allele and a...
We previously identified Arabidopsis genes homologous with the yeast ADA2 and GCN5 genes that encode components of the ADA and SAGA histone acetyltransferase complexes. In this report, we explore the biological roles of the Arabidopsis ADA2b and GCN5 genes. T-DNA insertion mutations in ADA2b and GCN5 were found to have pleiotropic effects on plant growth and development, including dwarf size, a...
Transcriptionally silent chromatin is associated with reduced histone acetylation and its propagation depends on histone hypoacetylation promoted by histone deacetylases. We show that tethered histone acetyltransferase (HAT) Esa1p or Gcn5p creates a segment of hyperacetylated chromatin that is at least 2.6 kb in size and counteracts transcriptional silencing that emanates from a silencer in yea...
A major goal in understanding eukaryotic gene regulation is to identify the target(s) of transcriptional activators. Efforts to date have pointed to various candidates. Here we show that a 34-amino-acid peptide from the carboxy terminus of GAL4 is a strong activation domain (AD) and retains at least four proteins from a crude extract: the negative regulator GAL80, the TATA-binding protein (TBP)...
The maize (Zea mays) Opaque2 (O2) gene encodes an endosperm-specific bZIP-type transcription activator. In this study, we analyzed O2 targets for chromatin and DNA modifications and transcription factors binding during endosperm development and in leaves. In leaves, O2 targets exhibit high cytosine methylation levels and transcriptionally silent chromatin, enriched with histones H3 dimethylated...
Hematopoiesis is a complex process which gives rise to all blood lineages in the course of an organism's lifespan. However, the underlying molecular mechanism governing this process is not fully understood. Here we report the isolation and detailed study of a newly identified zebrafish ugly duckling (Udu) mutant allele, Udu(sq1). We show that loss-of-function mutation in the udu gene disrupts p...
