(Submitter supplied) Nucleosomes are important for gene regulation because their arrangement on the genome can control which proteins bind to DNA. Currently, few human nucleosomes are thought to be consistently positioned across cells; however, this has been difficult to assess due to the limited resolution of existing data. We performed paired-end sequencing of micrococcal nuclease-digested chromatin (MNase-seq) from seven lymphoblastoid cell lines and mapped over 3.6 billion MNase-seq fragments to the human genome to create the highest-resolution map of nucleosome occupancy to date in a human cell type. more...

(Submitter supplied) Nucleosome positioning is critical to chromatin accessibility, and is associated with gene expression programs in cells. Previous nucleosome mapping methods assemble profiles from cell populations and reveal a cell-averaged pattern: nucleosomes are positioned and form a phased array surrounding the transcription start sites (TSSs ) of active genes and DNase I hypersensitive sites (DHSs). However, cells exhibit remarkable expression heterogeneity in response to active signaling even in a homogenous population of cells, which may be related to the heterogeneity in chromatin accessibility. more...

(Submitter supplied) Understanding chromatin dynamics is a key to other related processes, including DNA replication, transcription and recombination. As a first step, recently, an increasing amount of effort has been devoted to precisely define nucleosome positioning in different organisms. The most popular method to do so is digestion by Micrococcal nuclease (MNase), nowadays followed by ultrasequencing of the generated fragments. more...

(Submitter supplied) In order to maintain the appropriate level of mRNA it is necessary coordinate simultaneously all the steps along the mRNA life cycle. It has been shown that several factors act in the regulation of gene expression as global coordinators. Thus, some kind of information is transferred from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, imprinted in the mRNA. In this way, it is conceivable the existence of mechanisms that ensure the balance between mRNA synthesis and degradation through the information flow from the cytoplasm to the nucleus and vice versa, as a crosstalk among both process to ensure the proper mRNA homeostasis in the cell. more...

(Submitter supplied) Intact nuclei from an asynchronous population of W303 Saccharomyces cerevisiae in log-phase growth were subjected to a 16-minute DNase I digestion (0.1 U/μL) at 37 °C. DNA was then recovered, and single-end Illumina sequencing libraries were prepared using the Crawford DNase-seq method (Song and Crawford, 2010).

(Submitter supplied) Nucleosomes in active chromatin are dynamic, but whether they have distinct structural conformations is unknown. To identify nucleosomes with alternative structures genome-wide, we used H4S47C-anchored cleavage mapping, which revealed that nucleosomes at 5% of budding yeast nucleosome positions have asymmetric histone-DNA interactions. These asymmetric interactions are enriched at nucleosome positions that flank promoters. more...

(Submitter supplied) Background: Analysis of the effect that chromatin structure has on the expression patterns of eukaryotic genes has recently expanded knowledge of the complex influence genome accessibility has on genome function. Interlaced with regular nucleosomal patterning are other mobile and labile sub-nucleosomal-sized protein structures bound to the genome such as transcription factors (TF), initiation complexes, and modified nucleosomes. more...

(Submitter supplied) Experiments performed over the past three decades have shown that nucleosomes are transcriptional repressors. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, depletion of histone H4 results in the genome-wide transcriptional de-repression of hundreds genes. The mechanism of de-repression is hypothesized to be rooted directly in chromatin changes. To test this, we reproduced classical H4 depletion experiments by conditional repression of all histone H3 transcription, which depletes the supply of nucleosomes in vivo. more...

(Submitter supplied) In this study we developed MPE-seq, a method for the genome-wide characterization of chromatin that involves the digestion of nuclei with methidiumpropyl-EDTA-Fe(II) [MPE-Fe(II)] followed by massively parallel sequencing. Like micrococcal nuclease (MNase), MPE-Fe(II) preferentially cleaves the linker DNA between nucleosomes. We also performed MNase-seq as a comparison. We further performed ChIP-seq using chromatin samples obtained by MPE-Fe(II) or MNase digestion of nuclei.

(Submitter supplied) Nucleosome structure and positioning play pivotal roles in gene regulation, DNA repair and other essential processes in eukaryotic cells. Nucleosomal DNA is thought to be uniformly inaccessible to DNA binding and processing factors, such as MNase. Here, we show, however, that nucleosome accessibility and sensitivity to MNase varies. Digestion of Drosophila chromatin with two distinct concentrations of MNase revealed two types of nucleosomes: sensitive and resistant. more...

However, the precise nature of how post-translational modification of histones such as activating trimethylated histone 3 lysine 4 (H3K4me3), or histone demethylases including the H3K4 demethylase, KDM5B, impacts nucleosome positioning around transcriptional start sites (TSS) of active genes is poorly understood. more...

(Submitter supplied) We employed an MNase-Transcription Start Site Sequence Capture method to map and determine the accessibility of all nucleosomes during immune stimulus, at high coverage for all human Pol II promoters. We uncovered features of nucleosomal organization and sensitivity to MNase digestion in B-lymphoblastoid cells. We also find that transcription factor binding is associated with sensitive nucleosomes.

(Submitter supplied) Nucleosomes compact and regulate access to DNA in the nucleus, and are composed of approximately 147 bases of DNA wrapped around a histone octamer. Here we report a genome-wide nucleosome positioning analysis of Arabidopsis thaliana utilizing massively parallel sequencing of mononucleosomes. By combining this data with profiles of DNA methylation at single base resolution, we identified ten base periodicities in the DNA methylation status of nucleosome-bound DNA and found that nucleosomal DNA was more highly methylated than flanking DNA. more...
