Transitions in histone acetylation reveal boundaries of three separately regulated neighboring loci.
We have studied developmentally regulated patterns of histone acetylation at high resolution across approximately 54 kb of DNA containing three independently regulated but neighboring genetic loci. These include a folate receptor gene, a 16 kb condensed chromatin region, the chicken beta-globin domain and an adjacent olfactory receptor gene. Within these regions the relative levels of acetylati...
متن کاملGenomic analyses of transcription factor binding, histone acetylation, and gene expression reveal mechanistically distinct classes of estrogen-regulated promoters.
To explore the global mechanisms of estrogen-regulated transcription, we used chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with DNA microarrays to determine the localization of RNA polymerase II (Pol II), estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha), steroid receptor coactivator proteins (SRC), and acetylated histones H3/H4 (AcH) at estrogen-regulated promoters in MCF-7 cells with or without estradiol (E2) treat...
متن کاملHistone Acetylation in Conjugating
We have monitored histone acetylation during conjugation of the ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila using antibodies against the tetraacetylated form of H4 histone (Pfeffer, U., N. Ferrari, and G. Vidali. 1986. J. Biol. Chem. 261:2496-2498). During meiosis, the three prezygotic divisions, fertilization, and the first postzygotic division, micronuclei, do not contain highly acetylated for...
متن کاملP 110: Evaluating the Role of Histone Hyper Acetylation in Induction of Neuroinflammation
Microglia is the effector cell of the innate immune system in central nervous system (CNS). These cells mediate inflammatory responses in injuries. Besides external factors, microglial function is also controlled by internal factors, including epigenetic regulations. Mechanisms of epigenetic regulation mainly consist of DNA methylation, histone modifications and use of non-coding RNAs. Recent s...
متن کاملCell cycle-regulated oscillator coordinates core histone gene transcription through histone acetylation.
DNA replication occurs during the synthetic (S) phase of the eukaryotic cell cycle and features a dramatic induction of histone gene expression for concomitant chromatin assembly. Ectopic production of core histones outside of S phase is toxic, underscoring the critical importance of regulatory pathways that ensure proper expression of histone genes. Several regulators of histone gene expressio...
