Anti-Hp1α/CBX5 (Human) Antibody (Rabbit), Affinity Purified # 70-221 100 Μg

Manufacturer Anti-HP1α/CBX5 (human) antibody (rabbit), affinity purified # 70-221 100 µg Heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) is a major component of heterochromatin and plays a role in assembly of various proteins on chromatin and gene silencing. The HP1 family is evolutionally conserved, with members in fungi, plants and animals but not prokaryotes, and there are multiple members within the same species. The HP1 family proteins are encoded by a class of genes known as the chromobox (CBX) genes. In humans, HP1α is encoded by the Chromobox homolog 5 (CBX5) gene located on chromosome 12q13.13. HP1α has been observed to interact directly or indirectly with several non-histone proteins with a wide variety of functions (1). The product is prepared by immunizing rabbit with the synthetic peptide CEDAENKEKETAKS corresponding to the amino acid sequence 179-191 of human HP1α and purified by affinity purification with the peptide. The antiserum was prepared by the direction of Prof. T. Haraguchi. Applications 1) Western blot 1/1,000~1/3,000 Fig.1 2) Immunofluorescence staining 1/200~ 1/1,000 Specification Reactivity: Human.

The Roles of Histone Deacetylase 5 and the Histone Methyltransferase Adaptor WDR5 in Myc Oncogenesis
The Roles of Histone Deacetylase 5 and the Histone Methyltransferase Adaptor WDR5 in Myc oncogenesis By Yuting Sun This thesis is submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of New South Wales Children’s Cancer Institute Australia for Medical Research School of Women’s and Children’s Health, Faculty of Medicine University of New South Wales Australia August 2014 PLEASE TYPE THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname or Family name: Sun First name: Yuting Other name/s: Abbreviation for degree as given in the University calendar: PhD School : School of·Women's and Children's Health Faculty: Faculty of Medicine Title: The Roles of Histone Deacetylase 5 and the Histone Methyltransferase Adaptor WDR5 in Myc oncogenesis. Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) N-Myc Induces neuroblastoma by regulating the expression of target genes and proteins, and N-Myc protein is degraded by Fbxw7 and NEDD4 and stabilized by Aurora A. The class lla histone deacetylase HDAC5 suppresses gene transcription, and blocks myoblast and leukaemia cell differentiation. While histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) trimethylation at target gene promoters is a pre-requisite for Myc· induced transcriptional activation, WDRS, as a histone H3K4 methyltransferase presenter, is required for H3K4 methylation and transcriptional activation mediated by a histone H3K4 methyltransferase complex. Here, I investigated the roles of HDAC5 and WDR5 in N-Myc overexpressing neuroblastoma. I have found that N-Myc upregulates HDAC5 protein expression, and that HDAC5 represses NEDD4 gene expression, increases Aurora A gene expression and consequently upregulates N-Myc protein expression in neuroblastoma cells.

(RRP1B) Modulates Metastasis Through Regulation of Histone Methylation
Published OnlineFirst August 4, 2014; DOI: 10.1158/1541-7786.MCR-14-0167 Molecular Cancer Oncogenes and Tumor Suppressors Research Metastasis-Associated Protein Ribosomal RNA Processing 1 Homolog B (RRP1B) Modulates Metastasis through Regulation of Histone Methylation Minnkyong Lee1, Amy M. Dworkin1, Jens Lichtenberg1, Shashank J. Patel1, Niraj S. Trivedi2, Derek Gildea2, David M. Bodine1, and Nigel P.S. Crawford1 Abstract Overexpression of ribosomal RNA processing 1 homolog B (RRP1B) induces a transcriptional profile that accurately predicts patient outcome in breast cancer. However, the mechanism by which RRP1B modulates transcription is unclear. Here, the chromatin-binding properties of RRP1B were examined to define how it regulates metastasis-associated transcription. To identify genome-wide RRP1B-binding sites, high-throughput ChIP-seq was performed in the human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 and HeLa cells using antibodies against endogenous RRP1B. Global changes in repressive marks such as histone H3 lysine 9 trimethylation (H3K9me3) were also examined by ChIP-seq. Analysis of these samples identified 339 binding regions in MDA- MB-231 cells and 689 RRP1B-binding regions in HeLa cells. Among these, 136 regions were common to both cell lines. Gene expression analyses of these RRP1B-binding regions revealed that transcriptional repression is the primary result of RRP1B binding to chromatin. ChIP-reChIP assays demonstrated that RRP1B co-occupies loci with decreased gene expression with the heterochromatin-associated proteins, tripartite motif-containing protein 28 (TRIM28/KAP1), and heterochromatin protein 1-a (CBX5/HP1a). RRP1B occupancy at these loci was also associated with higher H3K9me3 levels, indicative of heterochromatinization mediated by the TRIM28/HP1a complex.

We Oslo, Norway review the organization of LADs and provide evidence of LAD heterogeneity from 2Department of Immunology and Transfusion Medicine, Oslo cell ensemble and single-cell data. LADs are typically repressive environments in the University Hospital, 0424 Oslo, genome; nonetheless, we discuss findings of lamin interactions with regulatory Norway elements of active genes, and the role lamins may play in genome regulation. We address the relationship between LADs and other genome organizers, and the involvement of LADs in laminopathies.

Keywords: 3D genome, Chromatin, LAD, Lamin A mutation, Nuclear envelope, Nuclear lamin, Radial positioning Introduction A snapshot of the genome in three dimensions In the eukaryotic nucleus, individual chromosomes occupy non-random territories and a radial (i.e., center-to-periphery) disposition enabled by sequestering specific chromo- somal domains to the nuclear envelope. Current views of the three-dimensional (3D) genome depict a hierarchical architecture of chromatin [1, 2]. Chromosome conform- ation capture combined with high-throughput sequencing (a method called Hi-C [3]) makes it possible to map interactions within and between chromosomes across ge- nomes [4].

Lamin B1 Is Required for Mature Neuron-Specific Gene Expression
ARTICLE Received 4 Jul 2016 | Accepted 28 Feb 2017 | Published 20 Apr 2017 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms15098 OPEN Lamin B1 is required for mature neuron-specific gene expression during olfactory sensory neuron differentiation Crystal M. Gigante1,2, Michele Dibattista3,4, Frederick N. Dong1, Xiaobin Zheng2, Sibiao Yue2, Stephen G. Young5, Johannes Reisert3, Yixian Zheng2 & Haiqing Zhao1 B-type lamins are major constituents of the nuclear lamina in all metazoan cells, yet have specific roles in the development of certain cell types. Although they are speculated to regulate gene expression in developmental contexts, a direct link between B-type lamins and developmental gene expression in an in vivo system is currently lacking. Here, we identify lamin B1 as a key regulator of gene expression required for the formation of functional olfactory sensory neurons. By using targeted knockout in olfactory epithelial stem cells in adult mice, we show that lamin B1 deficient neurons exhibit attenuated response to odour stimulation. This deficit can be explained by decreased expression of genes involved in mature neuron function, along with increased expression of genes atypical of the olfactory lineage. These results support that the broadly expressed lamin B1 regulates expression of a subset of genes involved in the differentiation of a specific cell type. 1 Department of Biology, The Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland 21218, USA. 2 Department of Embryology, Carnegie Institution for Science, Baltimore, Maryland 21218, USA. 3 Monell Chemical Senses Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19104, USA. 4 Department of Basic Medical Sciences, Neuroscience and Sensory Organs, University of Bari ‘A.

Using transgenic mice expressing GFP in cycling cells we sorted live, replicating beta-cells and determined their transcriptome. Replicating beta-cells upregulate hundreds of proliferation- related genes, along with many novel putative cell cycle components. Strikingly, genes involved in beta-cell functions, namely glucose sensing and insulin secretion were repressed. Further studies using single molecule RNA in situ hybridization revealed that in fact, replicating beta-cells double the amount of RNA for most genes, but this upregulation excludes genes involved in beta-cell function.

CBX5/G9a/H3k9me-Mediated Gene Repression Is Essential to Fibroblast Activation During Lung Fibrosis
RESEARCH ARTICLE CBX5/G9a/H3K9me-mediated gene repression is essential to fibroblast activation during lung fibrosis Giovanni Ligresti,1 Nunzia Caporarello,1 Jeffrey A. Meridew,1 Dakota L. Jones,1 Qi Tan,1 Kyoung Moo Choi,1 Andrew J. Haak,1 Aja Aravamudhan,1 Anja C. Roden,2 Y.S. Prakash,1,3 Gwen Lomberk,4 Raul A. Urrutia,4 and Daniel J. Tschumperlin1 1Department of Physiology and Biomedical Engineering, 2Laboratory of Medicine and Pathology, and 3Department of Anesthesiology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota, USA. 4Division of Research,Department of Surgery and Genomic Sciences and Precision Medicine Center, Medical College of Wisconsin, Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, USA. Pulmonary fibrosis is a devastating disease characterized by accumulation of activated fibroblasts and scarring in the lung. While fibroblast activation in physiological wound repair reverses spontaneously, fibroblast activation in fibrosis is aberrantly sustained. Here we identified histone 3 lysine 9 methylation (H3K9me) as a critical epigenetic modification that sustains fibroblast activation by repressing the transcription of genes essential to returning lung fibroblasts to an inactive state. We show that the histone methyltransferase G9a (EHMT2) and chromobox homolog 5 (CBX5, also known as HP1α), which deposit H3K9me marks and assemble an associated repressor complex, respectively, are essential to initiation and maintenance of fibroblast activation specifically through epigenetic repression of peroxisome proliferator– activated receptor γ coactivator 1 α gene (PPARGC1A, encoding PGC1α). Both TGF-β and increased matrix stiffness potently inhibit PGC1α expression in lung fibroblasts through engagement of the CBX5/G9a pathway. Inhibition of the CBX5/G9a pathway in fibroblasts elevates PGC1α, attenuates TGF-β– and matrix stiffness–promoted H3K9 methylation, and reduces collagen accumulation in the lungs following bleomycin injury.

The HIV-1 Gp120/V3 Modifies the Response of Uninfected CD4 T Cells
Morou et al. Journal of Translational Medicine 2011, 9:160 http://www.translational-medicine.com/content/9/1/160 RESEARCH Open Access The HIV-1 gp120/V3 modifies the response of uninfected CD4 T cells to antigen presentation: mapping of the specific transcriptional signature Antigone K Morou1, Filippos Porichis2, Elias Krambovitis3, George Sourvinos1, Demetrios A Spandidos1 and Alexandros Zafiropoulos4* Abstract Background: The asymptomatic phase of HIV-1 infection is characterized by a progressive depletion of uninfected peripheral effector/memory CD4+ T cells that subsequently leads to immune dysfunction and AIDS symptoms. We have previously demonstrated that the presence of specific gp120/V3 peptides during antigen presentation can modify the activation of normal T-cells leading to altered immune function. The aim of the present study was to map the specific transcriptional profile invoked by an HIV-1/V3 epitope in uninfected T cells during antigen presentation. Methods: We exposed primary human peripheral blood monocytes to V3 lipopeptides using a liposome delivery system followed by a superantigen-mediated antigen presentation system. We then evaluated the changes in the T-cell transcriptional profile using oligonucleotide microarrays and performed Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) and DAVID analysis. The results were validated using realtime PCR, FACS, Western blotting and immunofluorescence. Results: Our results revealed that the most highly modulated transcripts could almost entirely be categorized as related to the cell cycle or transcriptional regulation. The most statistically significant enriched categories and networks identified by IPA were associated with cell cycle, gene expression, immune response, infection mechanisms, cellular growth, proliferation and antigen presentation. Canonical pathways involved in energy and cell cycle regulation, and in the co-activation of T cells were also enriched.

Bioinformatic Analysis of the Expression and Prognostic Value Of
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Bioinformatic analysis of the expression and prognostic value of chromobox family proteins in human breast cancer Xiaomin Li1,3, Junhe Gou2, Hongjiang Li3 & Xiaoqin Yang3* Chromobox (CBX) family proteins control chromatin structure and gene expression. However, the functions of CBXs in cancer progression, especially breast cancer, are inadequately studied. We assessed the signifcance of eight CBX proteins in breast cancer. We performed immunohistochemistry and bioinformatic analysis of data from Oncomine, GEPIA Dataset, bcGenExMiner, Kaplan–Meier Plotter, and cBioPortal. We compared mRNA and protein expression levels of eight CBX proteins between breast tumor and normal tissue. The expression diference of CBX7 was the greatest, and CBX7 was downregulated in breast cancer tissues compared with normal breast tissues. The expression of CBX2 was strongly associated with tumor stage. We further analyzed the association between the eight CBX proteins and the following clinicopathological features: menopause age, estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and HER-2 receptor status, nodal status, P53 status, triple-negative status, and the Scarf–Bloom–Richardson grade (SBR) and Nottingham prognostic index (NPI). Survival analysis in the Kaplan–Meier Plotter database showed that the eight CBX proteins were signifcantly associated with prognosis. Moreover, CBX genes in breast cancer patients had a high net alteration frequency of 57%. There were signifcant co-expression correlations between the following CBX protein pairs: CBX4 positively with CBX8, CBX6 positively with CBX7, and CBX2 negatively with CBX7. We also analyzed the Gene Ontology enrichment of the CBX proteins, including biological processes, cellular components, and molecular functions. CBX 1/2/3/5/8 may be oncogenes for breast cancer, whereas CBX 6 and 7 may be tumor suppressors for breast cancer.

The HUSH Complex Cooperates with TRIM28 to Repress Young Retrotransposons and New Genes
Downloaded from genome.cshlp.org on September 24, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Research The HUSH complex cooperates with TRIM28 to repress young retrotransposons and new genes Luisa Robbez-Masson,1 Christopher H.C.

Here, we asked if the human silencing hub (HUSH) complex is nec- essary to silence retrotransposons and whether it collaborates with TRIM28 and the chromatin remodeler ATRX at specific genomic loci. We show that the HUSH complex contributes to de novo repression and DNA methylation of an SVA retro- transposon reporter. By using naıvë versus primed mouse pluripotent stem cells, we reveal a critical role for the HUSH com- plex in naıvë cells, implicating it in programming epigenetic marks in development. Although the HUSH component FAM208A binds to endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) and long interspersed element-1s (LINE-1s or L1s), it is mainly required to repress evolutionarily young L1s (mouse-specific lineages <5 million years old). TRIM28, in contrast, is necessary to repress both ERVs and young L1s. Genes co-repressed by TRIM28 and FAM208A are evolutionarily young, or exhibit tissue-specific expression, are enriched in young L1s, and display evidence for regulation through LTR promoters.
