Dynamic Control of Enhancer Activity Drives Stage-Specific Gene
ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-09513-2 OPEN Dynamic control of enhancer activity drives stage-specific gene expression during flower morphogenesis Wenhao Yan 1,7, Dijun Chen 1,2,7, Julia Schumacher 1,2, Diego Durantini2,5, Julia Engelhorn3,6, Ming Chen4, Cristel C. Carles 3 & Kerstin Kaufmann 1 fi 1234567890():,; Enhancers are critical for developmental stage-speci c gene expression, but their dynamic regulation in plants remains poorly understood. Here we compare genome-wide localization of H3K27ac, chromatin accessibility and transcriptomic changes during flower development in Arabidopsis. H3K27ac prevalently marks promoter-proximal regions, suggesting that H3K27ac is not a hallmark for enhancers in Arabidopsis. We provide computational and experimental evidence to confirm that distal DNase І hypersensitive sites are predictive of enhancers. The predicted enhancers are highly stage-specific across flower development, significantly associated with SNPs for flowering-related phenotypes, and conserved across crucifer species. Through the integration of genome-wide transcription factor (TF) binding datasets, we find that floral master regulators and stage-specific TFs are largely enriched at developmentally dynamic enhancers. Finally, we show that enhancer clusters and intronic enhancers significantly associate with stage-specific gene regulation by floral master TFs. Our study provides insights into the functional flexibility of enhancers during plant devel- opment, as well as hints to annotate plant enhancers. 1 Department for Plant Cell and Molecular Biology, Institute for Biology, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, 10115 Berlin, Germany. 2 Institute for Biochemistry and Biology, University of Potsdam, 14476 Potsdam, Germany. 3 Université Grenoble Alpes (UGA), CNRS, CEA, INRA, IRIG-LPCV, 38000 Grenoble, France, 38000 Grenoble, France. -

Modes of Interaction of KMT2 Histone H3 Lysine 4 Methyltransferase/COMPASS Complexes with Chromatin
cells Review Modes of Interaction of KMT2 Histone H3 Lysine 4 Methyltransferase/COMPASS Complexes with Chromatin Agnieszka Bochy ´nska,Juliane Lüscher-Firzlaff and Bernhard Lüscher * ID Institute of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Medical School, RWTH Aachen University, Pauwelsstrasse 30, 52057 Aachen, Germany; [email protected] (A.B.); jluescher-fi[email protected] (J.L.-F.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +49-241-8088850; Fax: +49-241-8082427 Received: 18 January 2018; Accepted: 27 February 2018; Published: 2 March 2018 Abstract: Regulation of gene expression is achieved by sequence-specific transcriptional regulators, which convey the information that is contained in the sequence of DNA into RNA polymerase activity. This is achieved by the recruitment of transcriptional co-factors. One of the consequences of co-factor recruitment is the control of specific properties of nucleosomes, the basic units of chromatin, and their protein components, the core histones. The main principles are to regulate the position and the characteristics of nucleosomes. The latter includes modulating the composition of core histones and their variants that are integrated into nucleosomes, and the post-translational modification of these histones referred to as histone marks. One of these marks is the methylation of lysine 4 of the core histone H3 (H3K4). While mono-methylation of H3K4 (H3K4me1) is located preferentially at active enhancers, tri-methylation (H3K4me3) is a mark found at open and potentially active promoters. Thus, H3K4 methylation is typically associated with gene transcription. The class 2 lysine methyltransferases (KMTs) are the main enzymes that methylate H3K4. KMT2 enzymes function in complexes that contain a necessary core complex composed of WDR5, RBBP5, ASH2L, and DPY30, the so-called WRAD complex. -

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated. -
Anti- Histone-H3 Antibody
anti- Histone-H3 antibody Product Information Catalog No.: FNab03890 Size: 100μg Form: liquid Purification: Immunogen affinity purified Purity: ≥95% as determined by SDS-PAGE Host: Rabbit Clonality: polyclonal Clone ID: None IsoType: IgG Storage: PBS with 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol pH 7.3, -20℃ for 12 months (Avoid repeated freeze / thaw cycles.) Background HIST2H3A,histone cluster 2, H3a.It is the core component of nucleosome. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called histone code, and nucleosome remodeling. HIST2H3A is Expressed during S phase, then expression strongly decreases as cell division slows down during the process of differentiation.

Received: 19 November 2020; Accepted: 6 December 2020; Published: 8 December 2020 Abstract: KMT2 (histone-lysine N-methyltransferase subclass 2) complexes methylate lysine 4 on the histone H3 tail at gene promoters and gene enhancers and, thus, control the process of gene transcription. These complexes not only play an essential role in normal development but have also been described as involved in the aberrant growth of tissues. KMT2 mutations resulting from the rearrangements of the KMT2A (MLL1) gene at 11q23 are associated with pediatric mixed-lineage leukemias, and recent studies demonstrate that KMT2 genes are frequently mutated in many types of human cancers. Moreover, other components of the KMT2 complexes have been reported to contribute to oncogenesis. This review summarizes the recent advances in our knowledge of the role of KMT2 complexes in cell transformation. In addition, it discusses the therapeutic targeting of different components of the KMT2 complexes.

BioSyst., 2016, 12,3067 David Xu,ab Shadia I. Jalal,c George W. Sledge Jr.d and Samy O. Meroueh*aef The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) offers an unprecedented opportunity to identify small-molecule binding sites on proteins with overexpressed mRNA levels that correlate with poor survival. Here, we analyze RNA-seq and clinical data for 10 tumor types to identify genes that are both overexpressed and correlate with patient survival. Protein products of these genes were scanned for binding sites that possess shape and physicochemical properties that can accommodate small-molecule probes or therapeutic agents (druggable). These binding sites were classified as enzyme active sites (ENZ), protein–protein interaction sites (PPI), or other sites whose function is unknown (OTH). Interestingly, the overwhelming majority of binding sites were classified as OTH. We find that ENZ, PPI, and OTH binding sites often occurred on the same structure suggesting that many of these OTH cavities can be used for allosteric modulation of Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported Licence. enzyme activity or protein–protein interactions with small molecules. We discovered several ENZ (PYCR1, QPRT,andHSPA6)andPPI(CASC5, ZBTB32,andCSAD) binding sites on proteins that have been seldom explored in cancer. We also found proteins that have been extensively studied in cancer that have not been previously explored with small molecules that harbor ENZ (PKMYT1, STEAP3,andNNMT) and PPI (HNF4A, MEF2B,andCBX2) binding sites. All binding sites were classified by the signaling pathways to Received 29th March 2016, which the protein that harbors them belongs using KEGG.
