RNA meets chromatin.
In the universe of science, two worlds have recently collided-those of RNA and chromatin. The intersection of these two fields has been impending, but evidence for such a meaningful collision has only recently become apparent. In this review, we discuss the implications for noncoding RNAs and the formation of specialized chromatin domains in various epigenetic processes as diverse as dosage com...
متن کاملArabidopsis epigenetics: when RNA meets chromatin.
Recent work in plants and other eukaryotes has uncovered a major role for RNA interference in silent chromatin formation. The heritability of the silent state through multiple cell division cycles and, in some instances, through meiosis is assured by epigenetic marks. In plants, transposable elements and transgenes provide striking examples of the stable inheritance of repressed states, and are...
متن کاملChromatin Meets Its Organizers
Chromatin organization and gene-gene interactions are critical components of carrying out developmental programs. Phillips-Cremins et al. identify a series of unexpected architectural proteins that work in a combinatorial manner to functionally organize chromatin in a cell-type-specific manner at the submegabase-length scale.
متن کاملWhen repair meets chromatin
In eukaryotic cells, the inheritance of both the DNA sequence and its organization into chromatin is critical to maintain genome stability. This maintenance is challenged by DNA damage. To fully understand how the cell can tolerate genotoxic stress, it is necessary to integrate knowledge of the nature of DNA damage, its detection and its repair within the chromatin environment of a eukaryotic n...
متن کاملChromatin meets the cell cycle.
The cell cycle is one of the most comprehensively studied biological processes, due primarily to its significance in growth and development, and its deregulation in many human disorders. Studies using a diverse set of model organisms, including yeast, worms, flies, frogs, mammals, and plants, have greatly expanded our knowledge of the cell cycle and have contributed to the universally accepted ...
