The Role of Histone Lysine Methylation in the Response of Mammalian Cells to Ionizing Radiation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of histone lysine methylation changes in regulating the response to radiation-induced genotoxic damage in mammalian cells is reviewed and the effects of the modulation of their expression and/or the pharmacological inhibition of their activity on the radio-sensitivity of different cell lines.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distinct roles of structure-specific endonucleases EEPD1 and Metnase in replication stress responses

TL;DR: It is proposed that EEPD1 initiates fork restart by cleaving stalled forks, and that Metnase may promote forks restart by processing homologous recombination intermediates and/or inducing H3K36me2 to recruit DDR factors.

Compensating for over-production inhibition of the Hsmar1 transposon in Escherichia coli using a series of constitutive promoters

TL;DR: A set of vectors was constructed based on constitutive promoters of different strengths to provide a wide range of transposase expression which will be useful for screening libraries ofTransposase mutants and found that mutations in the Hsmar1 dimer interface provide resistance to OPI in bacteria, which could be valuable for improving bacterial transposon mutagenesis techniques.

Development of a papillation assay using constitutive promoters to find hyperactive transposases

TL;DR: An improvement of the well-known papillation assay is presented where in place of an inducible promoter, a set of constitutive promoters cloned into a one or five copies vector in presence or absence of a ribosome binding site is designed.

Histone methyltransferase activity associated with a human multiprotein complex containing the Enhancer of Zeste protein

TL;DR: The isolation of a multiprotein E(z) complex that contains extra sex combs, suppressor of zeste-12, and the histone binding proteins RbAp46/RbAp48 is reported, which possesses HMT activity with specificity for Lys 9 (K9) and Lys 27 (K27) of histone H3.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-homologous DNA end joining and alternative pathways to double-strand break repair.

TL;DR: This Review discusses the most recent findings regarding the relative involvement of the different NHEJ proteins in the repair of various DNA-end configurations and the relevance of these different pathways to human disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

The quantitative proteome of a human cell line

TL;DR: This work provides a quantitative description of the proteome of a commonly used human cell line in two functional states, interphase and mitosis, and shows that these human cultured cells express at least ∼10 000 proteins and that the quantified proteins span a concentration range of seven orders of magnitude up to 20 000 000 copies per cell.

Regulation of MLL1 H3K4 methyltransferase activity by its core components

TL;DR: This study reports the first biochemical reconstitution of a functional four-component mixed-lineage leukemia protein-1 (MLL1) core complex and demonstrates that WDR5 mediates interactions of the MLL1 catalytic unit both with the common structural platform and with the histone substrate.
