Covalent modifications of histones integrate intracellular and extracellular cues to regulate the genome. H3 Lys 9 methylation (H3K9me) can direct heterochromatin formation and DNA methylation, while phosphorylation of H3 Ser 10 (H3S10p) drives gene activation and chromosome condensation. To examine the relationship between H3S10p, H3K9me, and DNA methylation in Neurospora crassa, we built and ...
DNA methylation and histone modification are two major epigenetic pathways that interplay to regulate transcriptional activity and other genome functions. Dnmt3L is a regulatory factor for the de novo DNA methyltransferases Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b. Although recent biochemical studies have revealed that Dnmt3L binds to the tail of histone H3 with unmethylated lysine 4 in vitro, the requirement of chro...
Positioned nucleosomes limit the access of proteins to DNA. However, the impact of nucleosomes on DNA methylation in vitro and in vivo is poorly understood. Here, we performed a detailed analysis of nucleosome binding and nucleosomal DNA methylation by the de novo methyltransferases. We show that compared to linker DNA, nucleosomal DNA is largely devoid of CpG methylation. ATP-dependent chromat...
The methylation status of a gene promoter is considered to be an important mechanism for the development of many tumors, including colorectal cancer. Recent studies have shown that specific patterns of DNA methylation across multiple CpG loci in some human tumors are more informative than the detection of one single CpG locus in tumor genomes. In the present study, multiple CpG methylations of ...
Abstract Cells are often under attack from various DNA-damaging agents. Accurate repair is required to protect cells the genome instability induced by DNA lesions. damage response (DDR) signaling involves sensitizing, transmitting, and repairing different types of within chromatin complexes. Chromatin a highly ordered complex packed with repeating units nucleosomes linker sequences. structure, ...
Currently, the daily routine of a molecular pathologist is DNA methylation and RNA sequencing. The authors, from standpoint researchers clinicians, explain methods used not only to diagnose brain tumors, but also search for possible targets therapy.
BACKGROUND Global DNA hypomethylation contributes to oncogenesis through various mechanisms. The level of long interspersed nucleotide element-1 (LINE- 1) methylation is considered a surrogate marker of global DNA methylation, and is attracting interest as a good predictor of cancer prognosis. However, the mechanism how LINE-1 (global DNA) methylation is controlled in cancer cells remains to be...
Most of the studies characterizing DNA methylation patterns have been restricted to particular genomic loci in a limited number of human samples and pathological conditions. Herein, we present a compromise between an extremely comprehensive study of a human sample population with an intermediate level of resolution of CpGs at the genomic level. We obtained a DNA methylation fingerprint of 1628 ...
BACKGROUND Histone H3 lysine 9 (H3-K9) methylation and DNA methylation are characteristic hallmarks of mammalian heterochromatin. H3-K9 methylation was recently shown to be a prerequisite for DNA methylation in Neurospora crassa and Arabidopsis thaliana. Currently, it is unknown whether a similar dependence exists in mammalian organisms. RESULTS Here, we demonstrate a physical and functional ...
BACKGROUND Epigenetics, particularly DNA methylation, has recently been elucidated as important in gastric cancer (GC) initiation and progression. We investigated the clinical and prognostic importance of whole blood global and site-specific DNA methylation in GC. METHODS Genomic DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood of 105 Omani GC patients at diagnosis. DNA methylation was quantified ...
