Herbicide injury induces DNA methylome alterations in Arabidopsis
The emergence of herbicide-resistant weeds is a major threat facing modern agriculture. Over 470 weedy-plant populations have developed resistance to herbicides. Traditional evolutionary mechanisms are not always sufficient to explain the rapidity with which certain weed populations adapt in response to herbicide exposure. Stress-induced epigenetic changes, such as alterations in DNA methylatio...
متن کاملGenome-wide DNA methylome alterations in acute coronary syndrome
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a common disease with high mortality and morbidity rates. The methylation status of blood DNA may serve as a potential early diagnosis and prevention biomarker for numerous diseases. The present study was designed to explore novel genome-wide aberrant DNA methylation patterns associated with ACS. The Infinium HumanMethylation450 assay was used to examine genome-...
متن کاملThe herbicide paraquat induces alterations in the elemental and biochemical composition of non-target microalgal species.
Huge quantities of pesticides are dispersed in the environment, affecting non-target organisms. Since paraquat affects the photosynthetic process, the biochemical composition of affected species should be altered. The effect of paraquat on Chlamydomonas moewusii, a freshwater non-target species, was studied. After 48 h of herbicide exposure, growth rate, dry weight, and chlorophyll a and protei...
متن کاملO-5: Reprogramming of Paternal DNA Methylome during Spermiogenesis
Background Chromatin of male and female gametes undergoes a number of reprogramming events during the transition from germ cell to embryonic developmental programs in the zygote. This process involves reorganisation of the patterns of 5-methylcytosine (5mC), a DNA modification associated with regulation of gene activity. Notably, both maternal and paternal genomes undergo Tet3-dependent oxidati...
متن کاملDNA damage response induces structural alterations in histone H3–H4
Synchrotron-radiation circular-dichroism spectroscopy was used to reveal that the DNA damage response induces a decrement of α-helix and an increment of β-strand contents of histone H3-H4 extracted from X-ray-irradiated human HeLa cells. The trend of the structural alteration was qualitatively opposite to that of our previously reported results for histone H2A-H2B. These results strongly sugges...
