Dynamic chromatin: concerted nucleosome remodelling and acetylation.
The flexibility of chromatin that enables translation of environmental cues into changes in genome utilisation, relies on a battery of enzymes able to modulate chromatin structure in a highly targeted and regulated manner. The most dynamic structural changes are brought about by two kinds of enzymes with different functional principles. Changes in the acetylation status of histones modulate the...
متن کاملChromatin: The nucleosome unwrapped
The structure of the nucleosome core particle has been determined by X-ray crystallography at 2.8 A resolution. The structure has several significant surprises, and provides important new insights into the structure and function of chromatin.
متن کاملChromatin remodeling by nucleosome disassembly in vitro.
The RSC chromatin-remodeling complex completely disassembles a nucleosome in the presence of the histone chaperone Nap1 and ATP. Disassembly occurs in a stepwise manner, with the removal of H2A/H2B dimers, followed by the rest of the histones and the release of naked DNA. RSC and related chromatin-remodeling complexes may be responsible for the removal of promoter nucleosomes during transcripti...
متن کاملChanging chromatin fiber conformation by nucleosome repositioning.
Chromatin conformation is dynamic and heterogeneous with respect to nucleosome positions, which can be changed by chromatin remodeling complexes in the cell. These molecular machines hydrolyze ATP to translocate or evict nucleosomes, and establish loci with regularly and more irregularly spaced nucleosomes as well as nucleosome-depleted regions. The impact of nucleosome repositioning on the thr...
متن کاملThe nucleosome landscape of Plasmodium falciparum reveals chromatin architecture and dynamics of regulatory sequences
In eukaryotes, the chromatin architecture has a pivotal role in regulating all DNA-associated processes and it is central to the control of gene expression. For Plasmodium falciparum, a causative agent of human malaria, the nucleosome positioning profile of regulatory regions deserves particular attention because of their extreme AT-content. With the aid of a highly controlled MNase-seq procedu...
