Methylation-Induced Repression— Belts, Braces, and Chromatin
notably Sp1, are indifferent to methylation status. Although direct interference is likely to play a part in suppression of methylated genes, its role may be minor inactivate genes is by direct exclusion of the transcrip-tional machinery from methylated promoter DNA. For and Human Development National Institutes of Health example the presence of methyl-CpGs could influence nucleosome stability ...
متن کاملBelts, braces, and pacemaker erosion.
The high-density epicardial mapping plaque used in this study provides coverage of 10% of the atria and hence has a narrow field of view relative to the global bi-atrial surface area. Thus from a segment of atria mapped, we could only determine whether a rota-tional circuits or a focal source is present and not whether it was critical in driving wavefronts elsewhere in the atria. It is possible...
متن کاملPcG Proteins, DNA Methylation, and Gene Repression by Chromatin Looping
Many DNA hypermethylated and epigenetically silenced genes in adult cancers are Polycomb group (PcG) marked in embryonic stem (ES) cells. We show that a large region upstream ( approximately 30 kb) of and extending approximately 60 kb around one such gene, GATA-4, is organized-in Tera-2 undifferentiated embryonic carcinoma (EC) cells-in a topologically complex multi-loop conformation that is fo...
متن کاملProgressive chromatin repression and promoter methylation of CTNNA1 associated with advanced myeloid malignancies.
Complete loss or deletion of the long arm of chromosome 5 is frequent in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). The putative gene(s) deleted and responsible for the pathogenesis of these poor prognosis hematologic disorders remain controversial. This study is a comprehensive analysis of previously implicated and novel genes for epigenetic inactivation in AML and MD...
متن کاملChromatin: A Tail of Repression
Genetic evidence on the role of specific histone amino acids or their posttranslational modifications in metazoan development has been lacking. A recent study reports that fruit flies carrying histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27) mutations have the same homeotic gene expression and developmental defects as mutations in the enzyme that trimethylates H3K27.
