Journal ArticleDOI
Variant histone H2A.Z is globally localized to the promoters of inactive yeast genes and regulates nucleosome positioning.
Benoit Guillemette,Alain R. Bataille,Nicolas Gévry,Maryse Adam,Mathieu Blanchette,François Robert,Luc Gaudreau +6 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that the incorporation of H2A.Z into specific promoter-bound nucleosomes configures chromatin structure to poise genes for transcriptional activation, and the relevance of these findings to higher eukaryotes is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
p21 transcription is regulated by differential localization of histone H2A.Z.
TL;DR: It is suggested that certain sequence-specific transcription factors regulate transcription, in part, by preferentially positioning histone variant H2A.Z within chromatin, part of an epigenetic process for modulating gene expression.
Journal ArticleDOI
H2A.Z Is Required for Global Chromatin Integrity and for Recruitment of RNA Polymerase II under Specific Conditions
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that H2A.Z can positively regulate gene transcription, at least in part, by modulating interactions with RNA polymerase II-associated factors at certain genes under specific cell growth conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
σ Factors and Global Gene Regulation in Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Riccardo Manganelli,Roberta Proveddi,Sébastien Rodrigue,Jocelyn Beaucher,Luc Gaudreau,Issar Smith +5 more
TL;DR: It is estimated that its etiologic agent, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, infects almost a third of the human population and kills two million people every year.
Journal ArticleDOI
The σ factors of Mycobacterium tuberculosis
TL;DR: The latest information available on mycobacterial sigma factors is analysed and their roles in the physiology and virulence of M. tuberculosis are discussed.
