Ubiquitylation and SUMOylation regulate transcription in several ways: 1) Ubiquitylation of histones H2A and H2B is associated with actively transcribed genes and marks transcriptionally active chromatin. 2) The enzyme Rad6 ubiquitylates histone H2B, promoting methylation of histone H3 and telomeric gene silencing. 3) SUMOylation differs from ubiquitylation in that it does not target proteins for degradation, but rather stabilizes or targets proteins to subnuclear structures.

1. Chromatin remodeling complexes use ATP hydrolysis to modify nucleosome structure and expose DNA for gene expression. The main classes are ATP-independent complexes and ATP-dependent complexes like ISWI and SWI/SNF.
2. Post-translational modifications of histone tails like acetylation, methylation, and phosphorylation can affect chromatin structure and transcription by altering DNA-histone interactions.
3. Chromatin remodeling is important for differential gene expression in specialized cell types and controlling DNA accessibility for transcription.
about Epigenetic and Dana and every happend
Epigenetics refers to chemical modifications of DNA and histones that regulate gene expression without altering the underlying DNA sequence. There are several key epigenetic mechanisms:
1. Histone modifications such as acetylation and methylation can open or close chromatin and thereby activate or repress genes.
2. DNA methylation involves adding methyl groups to cytosine bases in CpG islands in gene promoters, repressing gene expression.
3. Non-coding RNAs can regulate genes as signals, decoys, guides, or scaffolds.
Epigenetic modifications are important for normal development and can be influenced by environmental factors. They regulate processes like X-chromosome inactivation and genomic imprinting, where genes are expressed based
Genome organization of prokaryotic and eukaryotic.ppt
Prokaryotic cells do not contain nuclei or other membrane-bound organelles.
The nucleoid is the area of a prokaryotic cell in which the chromosomal DNA is located.
Chromosome is several orders of magnitude larger than the cell itself.
So, if bacterial chromosomes are so huge, how can they fit comfortably inside a cell—much less in one small corner of the cell?
Most prokaryotes do not have histones (except some species of Archaea).
Thus, one way prokaryotes compress their DNA into smaller spaces is through supercoiling.
Most bacterial genomes are negatively supercoiled during normal growth.
Multiple proteins act together to fold and condense prokaryotic DNA.
One most abundant protein HU, found in the nucleoid, works with topoisomerase I to bind DNA and introduce sharp bends in the chromosome, Generating the tension necessary for negative supercoiling.
Recent studies… other proteins like integration host factor (IHF), can bind to specific sequences within the genome and introduce additional bends.
The folded DNA is then organized into a variety of conformations that are supercoiled and wound around tetramers of the HU protein, much like eukaryotic chromosomes are wrapped around histones.
Ubiquitination
This document discusses the regulatory roles of ubiquitination and deubiquitination in various biological processes. It begins by introducing ubiquitination and deubiquitination as important post-translational modifications that regulate protein degradation and cellular signaling. It then discusses the enzymes involved in ubiquitination and the four families of deubiquitinating enzymes. Using Toll-like receptor signaling as an example, it describes how ubiquitination and deubiquitination work together to precisely control signaling pathways. Precise spatiotemporal regulation of these processes is crucial for mounting an appropriate response to stimuli. The document concludes by highlighting the importance of deubiquitination in cell cycle regulation and apoptosis.

This document discusses post-translational modifications (PTMs), which are covalent modifications of proteins after translation. PTMs play a crucial role in generating protein diversity and regulating protein function. Some key PTMs discussed include phosphorylation, glycosylation, methylation, acetylation, and lipidation. PTMs occur through the addition of chemical groups like phosphate, carbohydrates, methyl, and lipids to amino acid side chains. They are important for processes like cell signaling, apoptosis, and controlling protein localization and activity. Mass spectrometry and gel electrophoresis are techniques used to detect PTMs.
Epigenetics role in diseases
The document discusses epigenetics and chromatin structure. It defines epigenetics as heritable changes in gene expression that do not involve changes to the underlying DNA sequence. This includes histone modifications and DNA methylation. It describes chromatin as being made up of nucleosomes, which consist of DNA wrapped around histone octamers. The structure of chromatin affects gene expression, with euchromatin typically being gene-rich and actively transcribed, while heterochromatin is gene-poor and transcriptionally silent. Histone modifications like acetylation and methylation also influence gene expression. DNA methylation typically silences genes and occurs most frequently at CpG islands. These epigenetic changes play important roles in development and diseases like
Revised- Gene regulatiion Eukaryotics.pdf
Gene regulation allows eukaryotic cells to control which genes are expressed and when. It occurs at multiple levels, including epigenetic, transcriptional, post-transcriptional, translational, and post-translational control. Epigenetic gene regulation involves DNA methylation and histone modification, which influence chromatin structure and accessibility. Transcriptional control involves transcription factors binding to promoters and enhancers to regulate RNA polymerase recruitment and transcription initiation. Post-transcriptional mechanisms include alternative splicing of pre-mRNA and regulation by microRNAs. Gene regulation enables cellular differentiation and response to environmental changes.
Ubiquitin & Proteasome: Role in Transcription Regulation
Eukaryotic gene transcription is a phenomenally complex process. Regulation of gene transcription is vitally important for the maintenance of normal cellular homeostasis. Failure to correctly regulate gene expression can lead to cellular catastrophe and disease. One of the ways, cells cope with the challenges of transcription is by making extensive use of the proteolytic and nonproteolytic activities of the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS)

Epigenetics 12
Epigenetics is the study of heritable changes in gene expression that do not involve changes to the underlying DNA sequence. These changes can be caused by modifications to DNA and chromatin structure in response to environmental factors. Epigenetic modifications include DNA methylation, histone modifications, and regulation by non-coding RNAs. Changes in epigenetic patterns can lead to changes in gene expression and phenotypic traits, and have been linked to diseases like cancer. While epigenetic changes are heritable, they are reversible and do not permanently alter the DNA sequence like mutations do.
Epigenetics
Epigenetics involves heritable changes in gene expression that do not involve changes to DNA sequence. The main epigenetic mechanisms are chromatin remodeling, DNA methylation, and histone modification. Environmental factors like smoking, diet, and toxins can influence the epigenome. Errors in epigenetic programming have been linked to diseases. The epigenome responds dynamically to the environment and directs gene expression patterns during development and differentiation.
Molecular chaperones
This document provides an overview of molecular chaperones. It defines chaperones as proteins that assist in protein folding but are not part of the final structure. Chaperones exist in all cellular compartments and help prevent protein misfolding and aggregation. They are classified as intra-molecular or inter-molecular. The best characterized system is the GroEL/GroES complex which uses ATP to encapsulate proteins and facilitate folding. Chaperones have implications for developing treatments for diseases like cancers and lysosomal storage disorders.
Definition of epigenetics
Epigenetic mechanisms involve heritable changes in gene expression that do not alter DNA sequences. There are several epigenetic mechanisms including chromatin remodeling, histone modification, DNA methylation, and non-coding RNA pathways. [1] The epigenetic code in each cell, defined by DNA methylation and histone modifications, gives each cell its unique identity while the underlying genetic code remains the same. [2] Histone modifications like acetylation and methylation can activate or repress gene expression by changing chromatin structure and accessibility of DNA to transcription factors. [3]
Transposable Elements I Role and Types of TEs
The document summarizes transposable elements (TEs), which are DNA sequences that can move within genomes.

Examples of TEs like Alu, LINE-1, LTR retrotransposons, and Tn elements are provided. The document also discusses the roles of TEs in genetic diversity, evolution, and disease, as well as how organisms regulate TEs and potential applications of TEs in gene delivery and therapy.
Epigenetic role in plant
This document discusses epigenetics and provides examples of epigenetic mechanisms and case studies. It defines epigenetics as heritable changes in gene expression that do not involve changes to DNA sequence. Examples of epigenetic mechanisms include DNA methylation, histone modifications, and RNA interference. DNA methylation and histone modifications can turn genes on or off without altering the DNA sequence. The document also summarizes several case studies that demonstrate epigenetic effects, such as one showing that nurturing mothers lead to stress resilience in offspring through DNA methylation differences.
Transcription Regulation in Eukaryotes
The document summarizes regulation of transcription in eukaryotes. It discusses that transcription is primarily controlled by initiation and regulated by proteins binding to regulatory sequences. These sequences include cis-acting elements like promoters, enhancers, and silencers. Promoters contain core elements like the TATA box. Enhancers can regulate genes over long distances by DNA looping. Transcription factors have distinct DNA-binding and activation domains and recognize sequences like GC boxes. The binding of regulatory proteins to enhancers controls tissue-specific gene expression.
Transcription Regulation
This document provides an overview of regulation of transcription in eukaryotes. It discusses that transcription is primarily controlled at the initiation stage by proteins binding to regulatory sequences. These sequences include promoters near the transcription start site as well as enhancers that can be located farther away. Enhancers stimulate transcription through DNA looping. Gene expression is also regulated by chromatin structure and DNA methylation. Transcription factors have distinct DNA-binding and activation domains and include zinc finger and helix-turn-helix motifs.
Gene Expression.pptx
The document discusses gene expression and its regulation in eukaryotic cells. It states that while all somatic cells contain the same genetic information, differential gene expression gives rise to different cell types through the control of which genes are expressed. Gene expression in eukaryotes is regulated at multiple levels, including epigenetic, transcriptional, post-transcriptional, translational and post-translational levels. Cancer arises due to mutations that modify cell cycle control genes, causing uncontrolled cell growth. Gene expression changes in cancer can be caused by mutations, epigenetic alterations, or changes in transcriptional or post-transcriptional regulation.
Gene expression in eukaryotes 1

Finally, it discusses epigenetic mechanisms of gene regulation, including trans and cis epigenetic signals, propagation of epigenetic marks through DNA replication, and epigenetic therapies for cancer.
Regulation by Wnt Signaling
The Wnt cascade has emerged as a critical regulator of stem cells. In many tissues, activation of Wnt signaling has also been found to be associated with cancer. Understanding the regulation by Wnt signaling may serve as a paradigm for understanding the dual nature of self-renewal signals.
Cloning the Hist2H4 Gene
This document discusses cloning the mouse Hist2H4 gene, which encodes the histone H4 protein. Histones are proteins that package DNA into nucleosomes. The goals are to clone two fragments of the Hist2H4 gene - a short 984bp fragment containing the stem-loop sequence and a long 2686bp fragment containing both the stem-loop and polyadenylation signals. Primers were designed and PCR was used to amplify the genomic regions from mouse DNA. The clones will be used to further study histone mRNA regulation in proliferating and non-proliferating cells.

This document summarizes a study analyzing the interaction between MYOGEF, a guanine nucleotide exchange factor that activates RhoA, and SPTA1, a major component of the erythrocyte cytoskeleton. Previous research identified SPTA1 as an interacting partner of MYOGEF. The current study aims to characterize this interaction through constructing cDNA fragments of different regions of MYOGEF and SPTA1 and examining their interaction using yeast two-hybrid and in vitro pull-down assays. The results showed that the C-terminal region of MYOGEF interacted with the EF-hand motifs located in the C-terminal region of SPTA1. This interaction may lead to MYOGEF-mediated
Chromatin structure
Suv39h1 and Suv39H1 possess histone methyltransferase (HMTase) activity towards histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9) through their conserved SET domains. Point mutations in the catalytic motif of the SET domain abolish this HMTase activity. Suv39h1 specifically mono-, di- and trimethylates H3K9 in vitro but not other histone sites or proteins. Prior modifications of H3K9 like acetylation or serine 10 phosphorylation inhibit Suv39h1 HMTase activity at this site. Suv39h1 plays a role in chromatin structure and gene silencing through this site-specific H3K9 methylation in native
Regulation of Transcription in Eukaryotes
Regulation of transcription in eukaryotes involves multiple levels of complexity beyond prokaryotes. Gene expression is primarily controlled at the initiation of transcription by transcriptional regulatory proteins binding to cis-acting regulatory sequences like promoters, enhancers, and silencers. Promoters contain core elements like the TATA box and initiator sequence as well as proximal regulatory elements. Enhancers can stimulate transcription over long distances by forming DNA loops to interact with the transcription machinery. The binding of regulatory proteins to these sequences controls cell-type specific gene expression during development. Additional levels of control occur through chromatin remodeling and DNA methylation.

Microbial interaction
Microorganisms interacts with each other and can be physically associated with another organisms in a variety of ways.
One organism can be located on the surface of another organism as an ectobiont or located within another organism as endobiont.
Microbial interaction may be positive such as mutualism, proto-cooperation, commensalism or may be negative such as parasitism, predation or competition
Types of microbial interaction
Positive interaction: mutualism, proto-cooperation, commensalism
Negative interaction: Ammensalism (antagonism), parasitism, predation, competition
I. Mutualism:
It is defined as the relationship in which each organism in interaction gets benefits from association. It is an obligatory relationship in which mutualist and host are metabolically dependent on each other.
Mutualistic relationship is very specific where one member of association cannot be replaced by another species.
Mutualism require close physical contact between interacting organisms.
Relationship of mutualism allows organisms to exist in habitat that could not occupied by either species alone.
Mutualistic relationship between organisms allows them to act as a single organism.
Examples of mutualism:
i. Lichens:
Lichens are excellent example of mutualism.
They are the association of specific fungi and certain genus of algae. In lichen, fungal partner is called mycobiont and algal partner is called
II. Syntrophism:
It is an association in which the growth of one organism either depends on or improved by the substrate provided by another organism.
In syntrophism both organism in association gets benefits.
Compound A
Utilized by population 1
Compound B
Utilized by population 2
Compound C
utilized by both Population 1+2
Products
In this theoretical example of syntrophism, population 1 is able to utilize and metabolize compound A, forming compound B but cannot metabolize beyond compound B without co-operation of population 2. Population 2is unable to utilize compound A but it can metabolize compound B forming compound C. Then both population 1 and 2 are able to carry out metabolic reaction which leads to formation of end product that neither population could produce alone.
Examples of syntrophism:
i. Methanogenic ecosystem in sludge digester
Methane produced by methanogenic bacteria depends upon interspecies hydrogen transfer by other fermentative bacteria.
Anaerobic fermentative bacteria generate CO2 and H2 utilizing carbohydrates which is then utilized by methanogenic bacteria (Methanobacter) to produce methane.
ii. Lactobacillus arobinosus and Enterococcus faecalis:
In the minimal media, Lactobacillus arobinosus and Enterococcus faecalis are able to grow together but not alone.
The synergistic relationship between E. faecalis and L. arobinosus occurs in which E. faecalis require folic acid

Gene expression is primarily controlled at the initiation of transcription by transcriptional regulatory proteins binding to cis-acting regulatory sequences like promoters, enhancers, and silencers. Promoters contain core elements like the TATA box and initiator sequence as well as proximal regulatory elements. Enhancers can stimulate transcription over long distances by forming DNA loops to interact with the transcription machinery. The binding of regulatory proteins to these sequences controls cell-type specific gene expression during development. Additional levels of control occur through chromatin remodeling and DNA methylation.

Eukaryotic gene Regulation II 2014
This document provides an overview of eukaryotic gene regulation. It discusses how gene expression is controlled through transcriptional regulation by transcription factors and epigenetic mechanisms involving chromatin structure and histone modifications. Specifically, it describes the classes and functions of transcription factors, how they bind to DNA and regulate transcription. It also explains how chromatin accessibility and histone modifications influence gene expression and outlines some of the enzymes involved in histone modification.

Microbial interaction
Microorganisms interacts with each other and can be physically associated with another organisms in a variety of ways.
One organism can be located on the surface of another organism as an ectobiont or located within another organism as endobiont.
Microbial interaction may be positive such as mutualism, proto-cooperation, commensalism or may be negative such as parasitism, predation or competition
Types of microbial interaction
Positive interaction: mutualism, proto-cooperation, commensalism
Negative interaction: Ammensalism (antagonism), parasitism, predation, competition
I. Mutualism:
It is defined as the relationship in which each organism in interaction gets benefits from association. It is an obligatory relationship in which mutualist and host are metabolically dependent on each other.
Mutualistic relationship is very specific where one member of association cannot be replaced by another species.
Mutualism require close physical contact between interacting organisms.
Relationship of mutualism allows organisms to exist in habitat that could not occupied by either species alone.
Mutualistic relationship between organisms allows them to act as a single organism.
Examples of mutualism:
i. Lichens:
Lichens are excellent example of mutualism.
They are the association of specific fungi and certain genus of algae. In lichen, fungal partner is called mycobiont and algal partner is called
II. Syntrophism:
It is an association in which the growth of one organism either depends on or improved by the substrate provided by another organism.
In syntrophism both organism in association gets benefits.
Compound A
Utilized by population 1
Compound B
Utilized by population 2
Compound C
utilized by both Population 1+2
Products
In this theoretical example of syntrophism, population 1 is able to utilize and metabolize compound A, forming compound B but cannot metabolize beyond compound B without co-operation of population 2. Population 2is unable to utilize compound A but it can metabolize compound B forming compound C. Then both population 1 and 2 are able to carry out metabolic reaction which leads to formation of end product that neither population could produce alone.
Examples of syntrophism:
i. Methanogenic ecosystem in sludge digester
Methane produced by methanogenic bacteria depends upon interspecies hydrogen transfer by other fermentative bacteria.
Anaerobic fermentative bacteria generate CO2 and H2 utilizing carbohydrates which is then utilized by methanogenic bacteria (Methanobacter) to produce methane.
ii. Lactobacillus arobinosus and Enterococcus faecalis:
In the minimal media, Lactobacillus arobinosus and Enterococcus faecalis are able to grow together but not alone.
The synergistic relationship between E. faecalis and L. arobinosus occurs in which E. faecalis require folic acid

The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically young
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.

JAMES WEBB STUDY THE MASSIVE BLACK HOLE SEEDS
The pathway(s) to seeding the massive black holes (MBHs) that exist at the heart of galaxies in the present and distant Universe remains an unsolved problem. Here we categorise, describe and quantitatively discuss the formation pathways of both light and heavy seeds. We emphasise that the most recent computational models suggest that rather than a bimodal-like mass spectrum between light and heavy seeds with light at one end and heavy at the other that instead a continuum exists. Light seeds being more ubiquitous and the heavier seeds becoming less and less abundant due the rarer environmental conditions required for their formation. We therefore examine the different mechanisms that give rise to different seed mass spectrums. We show how and why the mechanisms that produce the heaviest seeds are also among the rarest events in the Universe and are hence extremely unlikely to be the seeds for the vast majority of the MBH population. We quantify, within the limits of the current large uncertainties in the seeding processes, the expected number densities of the seed mass spectrum. We argue that light seeds must be at least 103 to 105 times more numerous than heavy seeds to explain the MBH population as a whole. Based on our current understanding of the seed population this makes heavy seeds (Mseed > 103 M⊙) a significantly more likely pathway given that heavy seeds have an abundance pattern than is close to and likely in excess of 10−4 compared to light seeds. Finally, we examine the current state-of-the-art in numerical calculations and recent observations and plot a path forward for near-future advances in both domains.

Title: Gravitational wave detection with orbital motion of Moon and artificial
Abstract:
In this talk I will describe some recent ideas to find gravitational waves from supermassive black holes or of primordial origin by studying their secular effect on the orbital motion of the Moon or satellites that are laser ranged.EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Weste...
Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.

Describing and Interpreting an Immersive Learning Case with the Immersion Cub...
Current descriptions of immersive learning cases are often difficult or impossible to compare. This is due to a myriad of different options on what details to include, which aspects are relevant, and on the descriptive approaches employed. Also, these aspects often combine very specific details with more general guidelines or indicate intents and rationales without clarifying their implementation. In this paper we provide a method to describe immersive learning cases that is structured to enable comparisons, yet flexible enough to allow researchers and practitioners to decide which aspects to include. This method leverages a taxonomy that classifies educational aspects at three levels (uses, practices, and strategies) and then utilizes two frameworks, the Immersive Learning Brain and the Immersion Cube, to enable a structured description and interpretation of immersive learning cases. The method is then demonstrated on a published immersive learning case on training for wind turbine maintenance using virtual reality. Applying the method results in a structured artifact, the Immersive Learning Case Sheet, that tags the case with its proximal uses, practices, and strategies, and refines the free text case description to ensure that matching details are included. This contribution is thus a case description method in support of future comparative research of immersive learning cases. We then discuss how the resulting description and interpretation can be leveraged to change immersion learning cases, by enriching them (considering low-effort changes or additions) or innovating (exploring more challenging avenues of transformation). The method holds significant promise to support better-grounded research in immersive learning.
Anti-Universe And Emergent Gravity and the Dark Universe
Recent theoretical progress indicates that spacetime and gravity emerge together from the entanglement structure of an underlying microscopic theory. These ideas are best understood in Anti-de Sitter space, where they rely on the area law for entanglement entropy. The extension to de Sitter space requires taking into account the entropy and temperature associated with the cosmological horizon. Using insights from string theory, black hole physics and quantum information theory we argue that the positive dark energy leads to a thermal volume law contribution to the entropy that overtakes the area law precisely at the cosmological horizon. Due to the competition between area and volume law entanglement the microscopic de Sitter states do not thermalise at sub-Hubble scales: they exhibit memory effects in the form of an entropy displacement caused by matter. The emergent laws of gravity contain an additional ‘dark’ gravitational force describing the ‘elastic’ response due to the entropy displacement. We derive an estimate of the strength of this extra force in terms of the baryonic mass, Newton’s constant and the Hubble acceleration scale a0 = cH0, and provide evidence for the fact that this additional ‘dark gravity force’ explains the observed phenomena in galaxies and clusters currently attributed to dark matter.

How ubiquitin and SUMOs control trx.pptx
- 1. How ubiquitin and SUMOs control trx
- 2. Why this? • Ubiquitylation of proteins not only targets them for destruction, but is also a regulatory event in the nucleus • In recent years, important connections between ubiquitylation, chromatin structure, signaling pathways and transcriptional control have emerged. • The Ub-proteasome system is ideally suited to controlling the distribution, abundance and activity of components of the transcriptional machinery.
- 3. Ubiquitylation of histones • Histone H2A and H2B Ubiquitylation - one of the first recognized markers of trx active chromatin • The first ubiquitylated protein to be described was histone H2A • ubiquitylated forms of histones H2A and H2B were associated specifically with actively transcribed genes • Later also H1 and H3 reported to be ubiquitylated
- 4. Ubiquitylation and the histone code • Ubiquitylation of chromatin • The ubiquitin (Ub)-conjugating enzyme Rad6 ubiquitylates K123 in the core of histone H2B. This modification promotes the methylation of another histone, H3, at two positions, K4 and K79. These modifications, in turn, are required for telomeric-gene silencing. • TAFII250 (TFIID component) can ubiquitylate the linker histone H1; might relate to the role of this TAF in transcriptional activation. • Ubiquitylation = an integral part of the histone code Mechanism? Direct structural role by loosening chromatin structure Or as ”tag” recognized by proteins such as the proteasome or HDAC6 SEMINAR Inger Louise Bones: Wang et al. (2004) Role of histone H2A ubiquitination in Polycomb silencing. Nature, 431, 873-878.
- 6. What is SUMO-1 ? • SUMO-1 (small ubiquitin-related modifier) • peptide of 101 residues • function ≠ ubiquitin. • NOT tagged for degradation • Rather stabilized or ”targeted” to sub-nuclear structures
- 7. The SUMO-1 protein • Small Ubiquitin MOdifier • Link: isopeptide bond • between the C-terminal glycine of SUMO and the e-amino group of a lysine residue in the target protein. • Structure • characteristic ubiquitin-fold + unique unstructured N-terminal extension of up to 22 residues - possible protein interaction site?
