The work of Moser et al [ 14] provided the initial evidence that the susceptibility locus in this region might lie centromeric of PARP.
Sonicated salmon sperm DNA (Sigma) at the same concentration was included when human sequence centromeric probes were used.
Fourth, MeCP2 action on chromatin, as suggested by observed changes in histone acetylation [ 31 32 ] , may not involve protein coding genes that are represented on microarrays, but instead, may affect centromeric heterochromatin or the expression of small non-coding RNAs that are abundant in normal brain [ 33 ] . The results presented in this paper contradict the established model of MeCP2 function and necessitate a rethinking of strategies to unravel the pathologic process that leads to neuronal dysfunction in Rett syndrome.
Physiological experiments can also be used to characterize heterochromatin-binding proteins [ 45 ] . For example, absence of Swi6 in fission yeast sensitizes cells to thiabendazole (TBZ), a microtubule depolymerizing drug [ 46 ] . Presumably this occurs because absence of Swi6 disrupts centromeric heterochromatin and, as a result, sensitizes cells to drugs that compromise spindle function.
