...Yu-Chieh Chung; Madhoolika Bisht; Jenna Thuma; Li-Chun Tu ABSTRACT Dynamic chromatin organization instantly influences DNA accessibility through modulating local macromolecular density and interactions, driving changes in transcription activities. Chromatin dynamics have been reported to be locally...

... becomes dispensable. Moreover, increased chromatin dynamics in the H2A-S129E mutant correlates with improved DSB repair by non-homologous end joining and a sharp decrease in interchromosomal translocation rate. We propose that changes in chromosomal conformation due to H2A phosphorylation are sufficient...

... that the original work is properly attributed. Summary: We review plant meiosis, including chromosome tethering at the nuclear periphery that, we propose, defines chromosome dynamics-facilitating DNA sequence-based pairing of homologues Meiosis Chromatin dynamics Centromere associations...

... Chromatin dynamics Super-resolution 3D structured illumination microscopy Long-range chromatin interaction Chromatin is organized into regions of uncondensed euchromatin and more condensed heterochromatin in the cell nucleus ( Fedorova and Zink, 2008 ; Schneider and Grosschedl, 2007 ). It has...

... association between the bwD locus and centromere only after 15 hours of culturing. (D) Histograms of data shown in C. There is a marked increase in the constraint on chromatin dynamics upon differentiation ( Thakar and Csink, 2005 ). Here we test whether the constraint in chromatin movement could...

... protein content (reviewed by Francastel et al., 2000 ). We show that in addition to these changes, there is a change in chromatin dynamics. Interestingly, it seems that, at least in the differentiating eye imaginal discs, this change is mostly due to a decreased area of confinement, not to a change...

...Naohiro Kato; Eric Lam In the current model of chromatin organization in the interphase cell nucleus, chromosomes are organized into territories. Although constrained diffusion of chromatin in interphase cells has been confirmed in all cell types examined, little is known about chromatin dynamics...
