In recent years it has become clear that covalent modification of histones, transcription factors and other chromosomal proteins plays a major part in the dynamics of chromatin.
As SAHA treatment increased histone (H3 and H4) protein and acetylation levels in both cell lines, this may have altered the association of histones with DNA, thereby altering nucleosomal conformation and stability [ 27, 44].
These gels separate histones on the basis of charges as well as size, resulting in multiple bands for each histone that correspond to differently modified isoforms.
This silencing pathway uses short RNAs produced by Dicer and other RNAi components to direct methylation of DNA-associated proteins (histones), thus generating condensed, transcriptionally silent chromosome regions (heterochromatin) (see Figure 1).
We predict that these proteins define a new class of chromatin-modifying enzymes that are likely to oxidize the amino groups of histones or other nuclear proteins.
