Dynamic reprogramming of histone acetylation and methylation in the first cell cycle of cloned mouse embryos.
Epigenetic reprogramming is thought to play an important role in the development of cloned embryos reconstructed by somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT). In the present study, dynamic reprogramming of histone acetylation and methylation modifications was investigated in the first cell cycle of cloned embryos. Our results demonstrated that part of somatic inherited lysine acetylation on core his...
متن کاملAcetylation and methylation sites in histone H4 from Physarum polycephalum.
Histone H4 has been isolated and purified from plasmodia of Physarum polycephalum. The four major fragments produced by hydrolysis of H4 by acetic acid were separated and the complete amino acid sequence of two of them was determined. By analogy with calf H4, these peptides are at the C-terminus and give the sequence from residue 68 to the C-terminus (residue 102). In this 35 residue sequence t...
متن کاملHistone H4 acetylation and transcription in amphibian chromatin
Lampbrush chromosomes from oocytes of the amphibian Triturus cristatus have been used to examine the role of histone acetylation in transcription by indirect immunofluorescence with antisera to H4 acetylated at specific lysine residues. Electrophoresis on acid-urea-Triton gels and Western blotting have confirmed the specificity of these antisera and defined the order in which particular lysine ...
متن کاملNickel compounds are novel inhibitors of histone H4 acetylation.
Environmental factors influence carcinogenesis by interfering with a variety of cellular targets. Carcinogenic nickel compounds, although generally inactive in most gene mutation assays, induce chromosomal damage in heterochromatic regions and cause silencing of reporter genes when they are located near telomere or heterochromatin in either yeast or mammalian cells. We studied the effects of ni...
متن کاملTrichostatin A and nuclear reprogramming of cloned rabbit embryos.
To investigate the influence of histone deacetylases on nuclear reprogramming after nuclear transfer, we treated the cloned embryos with a histone deacetylase inhibitor, Trichostatin A (TSA). In the present study, global changes in acetylation of histone H3-lysine 14, histone H4-lysine 12, and histone H4-lysine 5 were studied in rabbit in vivo fertilized embryos, somatic cell nuclear transfer (...
