Chromatin-remodeling complexes have been a central area of focus for research dealing with accessing cellular DNA sequestered in chromatin. Although the linker histone H1 plays a major role in promoting and maintaining higher-order chromatin structure, it has been noticeably absent from assays utilizing chromatin-remodeling enzymes. This review focuses on two ATP-dependent chromatin-remodeling complexes, Drosophila ISWI and mammalian SWI/SNF, that have been assayed using chromatin templates containing histone H1. 相似文献

Proper control of the floral transition is critical for reproductive success in flowering plants. In Arabidopsis, FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC) is a floral repressor upon which multiple floral regulatory pathways converge. Mutations in PHOTOPERIOD-INDEPENDENT EARLY FLOWERING1 (PIE1) suppress the FLC-mediated delay of flowering as a result of the presence of FRIGIDA or of mutations in autonomous pathway genes. PIE1 is required for high levels of FLC expression in the shoot apex, but it is not required for FLC expression in roots. PIE1 is similar to ATP-dependent, chromatin-remodeling proteins of the ISWI and SWI2/SNF2 family. The role of PIE1 as an activator of FLC is consistent with the general role of ISWI and SWI2/SNF2 family genes as activators of gene expression. The pie1 mutation also causes early flowering in noninductive photoperiods independently of FLC; thus, PIE1 appears to be involved in multiple flowering pathways. PIE1 also plays a role in petal development, as revealed by the suppression of petal defects of the curly leaf mutant by the pie1 mutation. 相似文献

缺氧诱导因子(hypoxia-inducible factor, HIF)是异二聚体的转录因子,由氧敏感的α亚基和在细胞内稳定表达的β亚基组成,在细胞缺氧应答反应中起核心作用.缺氧诱导因子脯氨酰羟化酶(prolyl hydroxylase domain-containing proteins, PHDs)和天冬酰胺酰羟化酶,即缺氧诱导因子抑制因子(factor-inhibiting HIF, FIH)是调节缺氧诱导因子蛋白质水平和活性的2类关键酶,它们自身的催化活性受细胞内氧张力的调节,因而被称为细胞氧感受器.目前,大多数的研究都集中于PHDs,而对FIH的研究相对较少.本文主要就FIH的发现、晶体结构、生物学特征以及表达水平和活性调节等方面作一综述. 相似文献

ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling enzymes: two heads are not better, just different 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complexes enable rapid rearrangements in chromatin structure in response to developmental cues. The ATPase subunits of remodeling complexes share homology with the helicase motifs of DExx box helicases. Recent single-molecule experiments indicate that, like helicases, many of these complexes use ATP to translocate on DNA. Despite sharing this fundamental property, two key classes of remodeling complexes, the ISWI class and the SWI/SNF class, generate distinct remodeled products. SWI/SNF complexes generate nucleosomes with altered positions, nucleosomes with DNA loops and nucleosomes that are capable of exchanging histone dimers or octamers. In contrast, ISWI complexes generate nucleosomes with altered positions but in standard structures. Here, we draw analogies to monomeric and dimeric helicases and propose that ISWI and SWI/SNF complexes catalyze different outcomes in part because some ISWI complexes function as dimers while SWI/SNF complexes function as monomers. 相似文献

Bone is a dynamic environment where cells sense and adapt to changes in nutrient and oxygen availability. Conditions associated with hypoxia in bone are also associated with bone loss. In vitro hypoxia (2% oxygen) alters gene expression in osteoblasts and osteocytes and induces cellular changes including the upregulation of hypoxia inducible factor (HIF) levels. Our studies show that osteoblasts respond to hypoxia (2% oxygen) by enhancing expression of genes associated with adipocyte/lipogenesis phenotype (C/EBPbeta, PPARgamma2, and aP2) and by suppressing expression of genes associated with osteoblast differentiation (alkaline phosphatase, AP). Hypoxia increased HIF protein levels, hypoxic response element (HRE) binding, and HRE-reporter activity. We also demonstrate that prolyl-hydroxylases 2 and 3 (PHD2, PHD3), one of the major factors coordinating HIF degradation under normoxic but not hypoxic conditions, are induced in osteoblasts under hypoxic conditions. To further determine the contribution of PHDs and upregulated HIF activity in modulating osteoblast phenotype, we treated osteoblasts with a PHD inhibitor, dimethyloxaloylglycine (DMOG), and maintained cells under normoxic conditions. Similar to hypoxic conditions, HRE reporter activity was increased and adipogenic gene expression was increased while osteoblastic genes were suppressed. Taken together, our findings indicate a role for PHDs and HIFs in the regulation of osteoblast phenotype. 相似文献

To understand the mechanisms by which the chromatin-remodeling SWI/SNF complex interacts with DNA and alters nucleosome organization, we have imaged the SWI/SNF complex with both naked DNA and nucleosomal arrays by using energy-filtered microscopy. By making ATP-independent contacts with DNA at multiple sites on its surface, SWI/SNF creates loops, bringing otherwise-distant sites into close proximity. In the presence of ATP, SWI/SNF action leads to the disruption of nucleosomes within domains that appear to be topologically constrained by the complex. The data indicate that the action of one SWI/SNF complex on an array of nucleosomes can lead to the formation of a region where multiple nucleosomes are disrupted. Importantly, nucleosome disruption by SWI/SNF results in a loss of DNA content from the nucleosomes. This indicates a mechanism by which SWI/SNF unwraps part of the nucleosomal DNA. 相似文献
