Post-translational Modifications of Centromeric Chromatin.
Regulation of chromatin structures is important for the control of DNA processes such as gene expression, and misregulation of chromatin is implicated in diverse diseases. Covalent post-translational modifications of histones are a prominent way to regulate chromatin structure and different chromatin regions bear their specific signature of histone modifications. The composition of centromeric chromatin is significantly different from other chromatin structures and mainly defined by the presence of the histone H3-variant CENP-A. Here we summarize the composition of centromeric chromatin and what we know about its differential regulation by post-translational modifications.
期刊介绍:
Molecular biology has been providing an overwhelming amount of data on the structural components and molecular machineries of the cell and its organelles and the complexity of intra- and intercellular communication. The molecular basis of hereditary and acquired diseases is beginning to be unravelled, and profound new insights into development and evolutionary biology have been gained from molecular approaches. Progress in Molecular and Subcellular Biology summarises the most recent developments in this fascinating area of biology.
