Cohesins Functionally Associate with CTCF on Mammalian Chromosome Arms

TL;DR: It is shown that the distribution of cohesins on mammalian chromosome arms is not driven by transcriptional activity, in contrast to S. cerevisiae, and recruitment by CTCF suggests a rationale for noncanonical cohesin functions and, because C TCF binding is sensitive to DNA methylation, allows cohesIn positioning to integrate DNA sequence and epigenetic state.
Journal ArticleDOI

Variant histone H3.3 marks promoters of transcriptionally active genes during mammalian cell division

TL;DR: Results suggest that H3.3 is deposited principally through the action of chromatin‐remodelling complexes associated with transcriptional initiation, with deposition mediated by RNA polymerase II elongation having only a minor role.
Journal ArticleDOI

Formation of an active tissue-specific chromatin domain initiated by epigenetic marking at the embryonic stem cell stage.

TL;DR: It is shown that an intergenic cis-acting element in the mouse λ5-VpreB1 locus is marked by histone H3 acetylation and histone Lysine 4 methylation at a discrete site in embryonic stem (ES) cells, suggesting that localized epigenetic marking is important for establishing the transcriptional competence of the λ 5 and VpreB 1 genes as early as the pluripotent ES cell stage.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel role for the Aurora B kinase in epigenetic marking of silent chromatin in differentiated postmitotic cells

TL;DR: It is found that phosphorylation of H3 S10 by Aurora B generates high levels of the double H3K9me3/S10ph modification in differentiated postmitotic cells and also results in delocalisation of HP1β away from heterochromatin in terminally differentiated plasma cells.
