Roles of Chromatin insulators in gene regulation and diseases
With advances in genetic science, the dynamic structure of eukaryotic genome is considered as basis of gene expression regulation. Long-distance communication between regulatory elements and target promoters is critical and the mechanisms responsible for this connection are just starting to emerge. Chromatin insulators are key determinants of proper gene regulation and precise organization of c...
متن کاملActivation of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 transcription by chromatin remodeling complex.
OBJECTIVE Liver X receptor (LXR) regulates the transcription of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) by binding to the DR-4 promoter element as a heterodimer with retinoid X receptor (RXR). The role of chromatin remodeling complex in LXR or ABCA1 activation has not been established previously. In this study, we investigated the activation of ABCA1 by brahma-related gene 1 (BRG-1) and bra...
متن کاملP-19: Association of Poor Chromatin Remodeling with Cytosolic ROS and Mitochondrial ROS in Sperm of Infertile Men
Background: Cytoplasm and mitochondria are considered as the major origins of sperm ROS production. Sperm is prone to DNA damage by exposure to ROS or due impaired chromatin remodeling or low DNA protamination. Therefore, the aim of this study was to see if there is any association between impaired chromatin packaging and origin of ROS production. Materials and Methods: Cytosolic ROS, mitochond...
متن کاملPhosphorylation of Williams syndrome transcription factor by MAPK induces a switching between two distinct chromatin remodeling complexes.
Changes in the environment of a cell precipitate extracellular signals and sequential cascades of protein modification and elicit nuclear transcriptional responses. However, the functional links between intracellular signaling-dependent gene regulation and epigenetic regulation by chromatin-modifying proteins within the nucleus are largely unknown. Here, we describe novel epigenetic regulation ...
متن کاملAnalysis of intergenic transcription and histone modification across the human immunoglobulin heavy-chain locus.
Ig class switch recombination (CSR) is initiated by activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) mediated deamination of the switch (S) regions; the resultant mismatch is processed to yield the DNA breaks required for recombination. Whereas many of the pathways involved in the mechanism of recombination have been identified, little is known about how CSR is regulated. AID action is known to requ...
