H3.3-H4 Tetramer Splitting Events Feature Cell-Type Specific Enhancers
Previously, we reported that little canonical (H3.1-H4)(2) tetramers split to form "hybrid" tetramers consisted of old and new H3.1-H(4) dimers, but approximately 10% of (H3.3-H4)2 tetramers split during each cell cycle. In this report, we mapped the H3.3 nucleosome occupancy, the H3.3 nucleosome turnover rate and H3.3 nucleosome splitting events at the genome-wide level. Interestingly, H3.3 nu...
متن کاملMapping cell type-specific transcriptional enhancers using high affinity, lineage-specific Ep300 bioChIP-seq
Understanding the mechanisms that regulate cell type-specific transcriptional programs requires developing a lexicon of their genomic regulatory elements. We developed a lineage-selective method to map transcriptional enhancers, regulatory genomic regions that activate transcription, in mice. Since most tissue-specific enhancers are bound by the transcriptional co-activator Ep300, we used Cre-d...
متن کاملScm3 deposits a (Cse4–H4)2 tetramer onto DNA through a Cse4–H4 dimer intermediate
The assembly of centromeric nucleosomes is mediated by histone variant-specific chaperones. In budding yeast, the centromere-specific histone H3 variant is Cse4, and the histone chaperone Scm3 functions as a Cse4-specific nucleosome assembly factor. Here, we show that Scm3 exhibits specificity for Cse4-H4, but also interacts with major-type H3-H4 and H2A-H2B. Previously published structures of ...

متن کاملIslet cells share promoter hypomethylation independently of expression, but exhibit cell-type–specific methylation in enhancers
DNA methylation at promoters is an important determinant of gene expression. Earlier studies suggested that the insulin gene promoter is uniquely unmethylated in insulin-expressing pancreatic β-cells, providing a classic example of this paradigm. Here we show that islet cells expressing insulin, glucagon, or somatostatin share a lack of methylation at the promoters of the insulin and glucagon g...
