Chromatin dynamics during spermiogenesis.
TLDR
This review highlights the current knowledge on post-meiotic chromatin reorganization and reveals for the first time intriguing parallels in this process in Drosophila and mammals and illustrates the possible mechanisms that lead from a histone-based chromatin to a mainly protamine-based structure during spermatid differentiation.About:

A Tremendous Reorganization Journey for the 3D Chromatin Structure from Gametes to Embryos
Zhenping Chen,Xuepeng Chen +1 more
TL;DR: The latest findings on the 3D chromatin structure reorganization during embryogenesis are reviewed, and the roles of the convergent and divergent reprogramming patterns and key molecular mechanisms for the 3d chromatinructure reorganization from gametes to embryos in different species are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential gene expression revealed by transcriptomic analyses of male germ cells
Epigenetic regulation in rodent primordial germ cells and preimplantation embryos
TL;DR: The results illustrate the profound impact of a dysregulated paternal epigenome on embryo development, and it is proposed that mouse ROSI can be used as a model to study the effects of intergenerational inheritance of epigenetic marks.

Ultrastructural localization and distribution of Nardilysin in mammalian male germ cells.
Dominique Segretain,Dominique Segretain,Jerome Gilleron,Jean-Noël Bacro,M. Di Marco,M. Di Marco,Diane Carette,Diane Carette,Georges Pointis +8 more
TL;DR: The strong and specific accumulation of Nardilysin in the manchette and axoneme suggests that the enzyme probably contributes either to the establishment of these specific microtubular structures and/or to their functional properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamics of hyperacetylated histone H4 (H4Kac) during spermatogenesis in four decapod crustaceans.
TL;DR: In this paper, the distribution of hyperacetylated histone H4 (H4Kac) in four decapod crustaceans (Eriocheir sinensis, Charybdis japonica, Procambarus clarkii, and Macrobrachium nipponense) were investigated via immunofluorescence.

The language of covalent histone modifications.
Brian D. Strahl,C D Allis +1 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that distinct histone modifications, on one or more tails, act sequentially or in combination to form a ‘histone code’ that is, read by other proteins to bring about distinct downstream events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proteasome inhibitors: valuable new tools for cell biologists.
Do Hee Lee,Alfred L. Goldberg +1 more
TL;DR: The actions of selective proteasome inhibitors are described, how they can be used to investigate cellular responses, the functions of the proteasomes demonstrated by such studies and their potential applications in the future.

Identification of 67 Histone Marks and Histone Lysine Crotonylation as a New Type of Histone Modification
Minjia Tan,Hao Luo,Sangkyu Lee,Fulai Jin,Jeong Soo Yang,Emilie Montellier,Thierry Buchou,Zhongyi Cheng,Sophie Rousseaux,Nisha Rajagopal,Zhike Lu,Zhen Ye,Qin Zhu,Joanna Wysocka,Yang Ye,Saadi Khochbin,Bing Ren,Yingming Zhao +17 more
TL;DR: The identification of 67 previously undescribed histone modifications is reported, increasing the current number of known histone marks by about 70%, and lysine crotonylation (Kcr) is investigated, confirming that it represents an evolutionarily-conserved histone posttranslational modification.
