Sequence Signatures of Nucleosome Positioning in Caenorhabditis elegans
Our recent investigation in the protist Trichomonas vaginalis suggested a DNA sequence periodicity with a unit length of 120.9 nt, which represents a sequence signature for nucleosome positioning. We now extended our observation in higher eukaryotes and identified a similar periodicity of 175 nt in length in Caenorhabditis elegans. In the process of defining the sequence compositional character...
متن کاملA mouse histone H1 variant, H1b, binds preferentially to a regulatory sequence within a mouse H3.2 replication-dependent histone gene.
H1 histones, found in all multicellular eukaryotes, associate with linker DNA between adjacent nucleosomes, presumably to keep the chromatin in a compact, helical state. The identification of multiple histone H1 subtypes in vertebrates suggests these proteins have specialized roles in chromatin organization and thus influence the regulation of gene expression in the multicellular organism. The ...
متن کاملHistone acetylation: influence on transcription, nucleosome mobility and positioning, and linker histone-dependent transcriptional repression.
We demonstrate using a dinucleosome template that acetylation of the core histones enhances transcription by RNA polymerase III. This effect is not dependent on an increased mobility of the core histone octamer with respect to DNA sequence. When linker histone is subsequently bound, we find both a reduction in nucleosome mobility and a repression of transcription. These effects of linker histon...
متن کاملDelay-Dependent Robust Asymptotically Stable for Linear Time Variant Systems
In this paper, the problem of delay dependent robust asymptotically stable for uncertain linear time-variant system with multiple delays is investigated. A new delay-dependent stability sufficient condition is given by using the Lyapunov method, linear matrix inequality (LMI), parameterized first-order model transformation technique and transformation of the interval uncertainty in to the norm ...
متن کاملP-217: Expression Analysis of The Histone Variant H2A.Z in Endometrium Tissue during The Menstrual Cycle
Background: The human endometrium undergoes cyclical changes including proliferation, differentiation, tissue breakdown and shedding (menstruation) throughout a woman’s reproductive life. The postovulatory rise in ovarian progestrone induces profound remodeling in chromatin structure of cells, and consequently differentiation of estradiol-primed endometrium. This change is crucial for embryo im...
