ethyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MeCP2) is an epigenetic reader essential for neuronal function, but how it binds DNA methylation within chromatin is still unclear. Using designer nucleosomes we observe that MeCP2 preferentially binds DNA methylation positioned at multiple sites around the nucleosome. S...

We report genome-wide distribution of germ cell-specific linker histone variant H1T in cancer cell line AGS, MDA-MB-231, and mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). We found that H1T expressed not only testis but also non-germ cells such as cancer cells and pluripotent stem cells and showed the biased d...

Non-canonical DNA structures such as G-quadruplex (G4) and i-motif (iM) are formed at the guanine- and cytosine-rich sequences, respectively, and prohibit DNA replication and transcription. The formation and resolution of these non-canonical structures are therefore required to be dynamically regula...

Characteristic features of chromatin states are not limited to particular epigenetic modifications but include other regulatory cues, such as linker DNA length, typically ranging from between 35-55 bp (Valouev et al, 2011; Voong et al., 2016, Cell) to over 200 bp in nucleosome-depleted regions (NDRs...

As a key structural component of the chromatin of higher eukaryotes, linker histones (H1s) are involved in stabilizing the folding of extended nucleosome arrays into higher-order chromatin structures and function as a gene-specific regulators of transcription in vivo. The H1 C-terminal domain (CTD) ...

At least six histone H1 variants exist in mammalian somatic cells that bind to the linker DNA and stabilize the nucleosome particle contributing to higher order chromatin compaction. In addition, H1 seems to be involved in the active regulation of gene expression. It is not well known whether the di...

Novel nucleosomal particles containing core histones and linker DNA but no histone H1
At least six histone H1 variants exist in mammalian somatic cells that bind to the linker DNA and stabilize the nucleosome particle contributing to higher order chromatin compaction. In addition, H1 seems to be involved in the active regulation of gene expression. It is not well known whether the di...

Protein–DNA interactions are key to the functionality and stability of the genome. Identification and mapping of protein–DNA interaction interfaces and sites is crucial for understanding DNA-dependent processes. Here, we present a workflow that allows mass spectrometric (MS) identification of protei...

The nucleosome plays a central role in genome regulation. Traditional methods for mapping nucleosomes depend on the resistance of the nucleosome core to micrococcal nuclease (MNase). However, the lengths of the protected DNA fragments are heterogeneous, limiting the accuracy of nucleosome position i...
