Psip1/Ledgf p52 Binds Methylated Histone H3K36 and Splicing Factors and Contributes to the Regulation of Alternative Splicing

TL;DR: The PWWP domain of the chromatin-associated protein Psip1/Ledgf can specifically recognize tri-methylated H3K36 and that, like this histone modification, thePsip1 short (p52) isoform is enriched at active genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Histone H3 globular domain acetylation identifies a new class of enhancers

TL;DR: A more comprehensive analysis of histone acetylation is required than has previously been considered, and a new class of active functional enhancers is found that is marked by H3K122ac but lacks H 3K27ac.
Journal ArticleDOI

H4K16 acetylation marks active genes and enhancers of embryonic stem cells, but does not alter chromatin compaction

TL;DR: It is shown that loss of H4K16 acetylation does not alter higher-order chromatin compaction in vivo in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs), and that some enhancers are marked by H3K4me1, KAT8, and H4k16ac, but not by acetylated H3k27 or EP300, suggesting that they are novel EP300 independent regulatory elements.
Journal ArticleDOI

The E3 ubiquitin ligase activity of Ring1B is not essential for early mouse development

TL;DR: It is shown that the ability of RING1B, a core component of PRC1, to ubiquitinate histone H2A is dispensable for early mouse embryonic development and much of the gene repression activity ofPRC1 is removed.
