Heterochromatin protein 1 recruitment and chromatin conformational dynamics at the single-molecule level

Sinan Kilic

Chromatin is the template on which DNA-associated transactions take place in eukaryotic organisms. Nucleosomes consisting of the four histones H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 each organize ~150bp of DNA and constitute a first layer of chromatin. The three-dimensional ...

Allosteric cross-talk in chromatin can mediate drug-drug synergy

Paul Joseph Dyson, Ursula Röthlisberger, Tina Riedel, Giulia Palermo

Exploitation of drug-drug synergism and allostery could yield superior therapies by capitalizing on the immensely diverse, but highly specific, potential associated with the biological macromolecular landscape. Here we describe a drug-drug synergy mediated ...

Phase specific transcriptional regulation of circadian clock and metabolism in mouse liver

Jonathan Aryeh Sobel

The molecular clock has been conserved from cyanobacteria to mammals and is believed to align behavioral and biochemical processes with the diurnal cycle. This cellular mechanism has been an advantage to increase the fitness of organisms through the abilit ...

Predicting transcription factor site occupancy using DNA sequence intrinsic and cell-type specific chromatin features

Philipp Bucher, Sunil Kumar

Background: Understanding the mechanisms by which transcription factors (TF) are recruited to their physiological target sites is crucial for understanding gene regulation. DNA sequence intrinsic features such as predicted binding affinity are often not ve ...

Integrating gene synthesis and microfluidic protein analysis for rapid protein engineering

Sebastian Maerkl, Ekaterina Emilova Petrova, Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia, Matthew Christopher Blackburn

The capability to rapidly design proteins with novel functions will have a significant impact on medicine, biotechnology and synthetic biology. Synthetic genes are becoming a commodity, but integrated approaches have yet to be developed that take full adva ...

A large-scale, in vivo transcription factor screen defines bivalent chromatin as a key property of regulatory factors mediating Drosophila wing development

Bart Deplancke, Monica Albarca Aguilera

Transcription factors (TFs) are key regulators of cell fate. The estimated 755 genes that encode DNA binding domain-containing proteins comprise similar to 5% of all Drosophila genes. However, the majority has remained uncharacterized so far due to the lac ...

Telomere functions grounding on TERRA firma

Joachim Lingner

Long noncoding telomeric repeat-containing RNAs TERRAs - are transcribed in a regulated manner from telomeres throughout eukaryotes. TERRA molecules consist of chromosome end-specific subtelomeric sequences and telomeric repeats at their 3' ends. Recent wo ...

Multivalency governs HP1α association dynamics with the silent chromatin state

Beat Fierz, Louise Catherine Bryan, Sinan Kilic, Andreas Linus Bachmann

Multivalent interactions between effector proteins and histone post-translational modifications are an elementary mechanism of dynamic chromatin signalling. Here we elucidate the mechanism how heterochromatin protein 1α (HP1α), a multivalent effector, is e ...

Principles of ChIP-seq Data Analysis Illustrated with Examples

Giovanna Ambrosini, Philipp Bucher, René Dreos

Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) followed by high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) is a powerful method to determine how transcription factors and other chromatin-associated proteins interact with DNA in order to regulate gene transcription. A single C ...

Identification and removal of low-complexity sites in allele-specific analysis of ChIP-seq data

Bart Deplancke, Sebastian Martin Waszak, Sunil Kumar Raghav, Nouria Hernandez, Alisa Yurovsky

Motivation: High-throughput sequencing technologies enable the genome-wide analysis of the impact of genetic variation on molecular phenotypes at unprecedented resolution. However, although powerful, these technologies can also introduce unexpected artifac ...

The PhoP-Dependent ncRNA Mcr7 Modulates the TAT Secretion System in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Stewart Cole, Claudia Sala, Jacques Rougemont, Andrej Benjak, Swapna Uplekar

The PhoPR two-component system is essential for virulence in Mycobacterium tuberculosis where it controls expression of approximately 2% of the genes, including those for the ESX-1 secretion apparatus, a major virulence determinant. Mutations in phoP lead ...
