PR-DUB preserves Polycomb repression by preventing excessive accumulation of H2Aub1, an antagonist of chromatin compaction

Beat Fierz, Iuliia Boichenko

The Polycomb repressive complexes PRC1, PRC2, and PR-DUB repress target genes by modifying their chromatin. In Drosophila, PRC1 compacts chromatin and monoubiquitinates histone H2A at lysine 118 (H2Aub1), whereas PR-DUB is a major H2Aub1 deubiquitinase, bu ...

Chemical and biophysical methods to explore dynamic mechanisms of chromatin silencing

Beat Fierz, Iuliia Boichenko

Chromatin, the nucleoprotein complex organizing the genome, is central in regulating gene expression and genome organization. Chromatin conformational dynamics, controlled by histone post-translational modifications (PTM) and effector proteins, play a key ...

Chromatin Fiber Invasion and Nucleosome Displacement by the Rap1 Transcription Factor

Rudolf Hovius, Beat Fierz, Iuliia Boichenko, Maxime Nicolas Mivelaz, Anne-Marinette Thi Phuong Hanh Cao

Pioneer transcription factors (pTFs) bind to target sites within compact chromatin, initiating chromatin remodeling and controlling the recruitment of downstream factors. The mechanisms by which pTFs overcome the chromatin barrier are not well understood. ...
