The plant-specific DNA-dependent RNA polymerase V (Pol V) evolved from Pol II to function in an RNA-directed DNA methylation pathway. Here, we have identified targets of Pol V in Arabidopsis thaliana on a genome-wide scale using ChIP-seq of NRPE1, the largest catalytic subunit of Pol V. We found tha...
Full title: Altered levels of MOF (member of MYST family histone acetyl transferase) and decreased levels of H4K16ac correlate with a defective DNA damage response (DDR). The human MOF gene encodes a protein that specifically acetylates histone H4 at lysine 16 (H4K16ac). Here we show that altered le...
Chemical cross-linking coupled to mass spectrometry was used to study the A. thaliana DDR complex consisting of DMS3, RMD1 and a peptide from the interaction region of DRD1. Cross-linking was performed using different cross-linking chemistries: disuccinimidyl suberate (DSS) and a combination of adip...
We used microarrays to detect the differences in gene-expression of wild type and Discoidin Domain Receptor 1 Tyrosine Kinase (DDR-1)-KO mice TMJ-cartilage. RNA was extracted directly of the madibular condyle cartilage
Genome instability is a potential limitation to the research and therapeutic application of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Observed genomic variations reflect the combined activities of DNA damage, cellular DNA damage response (DDR), and selection pressure in culture. To understand the cont...

The discovery of the first histone demethylase in 2004 (LSD1/KDM1) opened new avenues for the understanding of how histone methylation impacts cellular functions. A great number of histone demethylases have been identified since, which are potentially linked to gene regulation as well as to stem cel...
Human DNA Damage Signaling Pathway RT2 Profiler Array Kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA) was used to profile the expression of key genes involved in the DDR network as per the manufacturer’s instructions. U937 cells were incubated with PXD-101 +/- MLN4924 for 16 h, after which the RT2 ProfilerTM DNA damag...
