Title: Is histone loss a common feature of DNA metabolism regulation? Author: Morillon A. Journal: Biochem Cell Biol; 2006 Aug; 84(4):450-62. PubMed ID: 16936819. Abstract: Chromatin modifications play a crucial role in regulating DNA metabolism. Chromatin structures can be remodeled by covalently modifying histones, by shifting nucleosomes along the DNA, and by changing the histone composition of nucleosomes. Lately, nucleosome displacement has been extensively described within transcribed genes and DNA breaks. This review focuses on recently published work that describes the relationships between histone modification/exchange and nucleosome displacement.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
