Mice lacking the chromodomain helicase DNA-binding 5 chromatin remodeler display autism-like characteristics
Although autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) share a core set of nosological features, they exhibit substantial genetic heterogeneity. A parsimonious hypothesis posits that dysregulated epigenetic mechanisms represent common pathways in the etiology of ASDs. To investigate this hypothesis, we generated a novel mouse model resulting from brain-specific deletion of chromodomain helicase DNA-binding ...
متن کاملThe quest for the 1p36 tumor suppressor.
Genomic analyses of late-stage human cancers have uncovered deletions encompassing 1p36, thereby providing an extensive body of literature supporting the idea that a potent tumor suppressor resides in this interval. Although several genes have been proposed as 1p36 candidate tumor suppressors, convincing evidence that their encoded products protect from cancer has been scanty. A recent function...
متن کاملChromodomain helicase/ATPase DNA binding protein 1-like protein expression predicts poor prognosis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a malignancy with a high metastatic ability. Recent studies have implicated the role of chromodomain helicase/ATPase DNA binding protein 1-like (CHD1L) gene as a novel oncogene; however, the functional role of CHD1L in NPC remains unknown. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical significance of CHD1L positivity in NPC. CHD1L protein expression was ex...
متن کاملKinetics of DNA Unwrapping in Nucleosomes
The eukaryotic genome is organized into complex structures known as nucleosomes, which consist of DNA tightly wrapped around four pairs of proteins called histones. This structure raises questions about the accessibility of the DNA to the proteins that must bind to the DNA for key processes such as transcription and repair. Ingenious experiments in the recent past have suggested that the fluctu...
متن کاملMutual regulation between CHD5 and EZH2 in hepatocellular carcinoma.
Chromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 5 (CHD5) acts as a tumor suppressor in many cancers. In the present study, we demonstrated that reduced levels of CHD5 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissues were significantly associated with metastasis and poor prognosis. Gain-of-function assays revealed that CHD5 suppressed motility and invasion of HCC cells. Subsequent investigations showed that ...
