Saccharomyces cerevisiae histone H2A Ser122 facilitates DNA repair.
DNA repair takes place in the context of chromatin. Recently, it has become apparent that proteins that make up and modulate chromatin structure are involved in the detection and repair of DNA lesions. We previously demonstrated that Ser129 in the carboxyl-terminal tail of yeast histone H2A is important for double-strand-break responses. By undertaking a systematic site-directed mutagenesis app...
متن کاملLinker Histone / DNA Interactions : In Vitro Studies
approved: Jordanka Zlatanova By studying the linker histone/DNA complex in vitro, our goal was to gain further insight into the interaction of these histones in chromatin structure, which, in turn, helps us in better understanding critical biological processes such as replication, transcription, and recombination. In direct competition experiments, we have confirmed previous results of the pref...
متن کاملOrganizing the genome with H2A histone variants.
Chromatin acts as an organizer and indexer of genomic DNA and is a highly dynamic and regulated structure with properties directly related to its constituent parts. Histone variants are abundant components of chromatin that replace canonical histones in a subset of nucleosomes, thereby altering nucleosomal characteristics. The present review focuses on the H2A variant histones, summarizing curr...
متن کاملRegulation of histone H2A and H2B ubiquitylation.
Histone ubiquitylation has emerged as an important chromatin modification with roles in transcription and trans-histone methylation. In the past several years, there has been dramatic progress in the identification of factors that control ubiquitin attachment to the core histones H2A and H2B. Recent advances in this area will be reviewed, and outstanding questions relating to the cellular funct...
متن کاملAnionic nucleotide--lipids for in vitro DNA transfection.
A family of new anionic nucleotide based lipids featuring thymidine-3'-monophosphate as nucleotide and 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol as lipid moiety for in vitro delivery of nucleic acids is described. The nucleotide lipids were prepared in three steps starting from 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerols and 2'-deoxythymidine-3'-phosphoramidite. Gel electrophoresis experiments show that nucleotide-based lipid-DNA co...
