Journal ArticleDOI

Histone H1 Depletion in Mammals Alters Global Chromatin Structure but Causes Specific Changes in Gene Regulation

TL;DR: Results indicate that linker histones can participate in epigenetic regulation of gene expression by contributing to the maintenance or establishment of specific DNA methylation patterns.
Journal ArticleDOI

A mouse model for mucopolysaccharidosis type III A (Sanfilippo syndrome)

TL;DR: A spontaneous mouse mutant is described that replicates many of the features found in MPS III A in children, and provides an excellent model for evaluating pathogenic mechanisms of disease and for testing treatment strategies, including enzyme or cell replacement and gene therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel missense mutation in lysosomal sulfamidase is the basis of MPS III A in a spontaneous mouse mutant

TL;DR: It is shown that the sulfamidase gene of the MPS III A mouse carries a novel mutation (G91A) that gives an amino acid change likely to interfere with the coordination of a divalent metal ion in the active site of this sulfatase.
Journal ArticleDOI

Truncated, InactiveN-Acetylglucosaminyltransferase III (GlcNAc-TIII) Induces Neurological and Other Traits Absent in Mice That Lack GlcNAc-TIII

TL;DR: The Mgat3 T37/T37 homozygotes in a mixed or 129SvJ background were retarded in growth rate and exhibited an altered leg clasp reflex, an altered gait, and defective nursing behavior, which may be the basis of the unexpected neurological phenotype induced by truncated, inactive GlcNAc-TIII in the mouse.
Journal Article

New evidence for an extra-hepatic role of N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase III in the progression of diethylnitrosamine-induced liver tumors in mice

TL;DR: The combined data provide strong evidence that retarded progression of tumors in mice lacking GlcNAc-TIII is due to the absence of the bisecting Glc NAc residue on N-glycans of a circulating glycoprotein(s) from a tissue other than liver.
