To characterize the catalytic mechanism for zinc-dependent histone deacetylases (HDAC), we have carried out d. functional theory (DFT) QM/MM studies on the deacetylation reaction catalyzed by a histone-deacetylase-like protein (HDLP). The calcn. results do ...
The antiproliferative properties of a group of 13 structurally diverse gold(III) compounds, including six mononuclear gold(III) complexes, five dinuclear oxo-bridged gold(III) complexes, and two organogold(III) compounds, toward several human tumor cell li ...
The sirtuin family of histone deacetylases (HDACs) was named after their homology to the Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene silent information regulator 2 (Sir2). In the yeast, Sir2 has been shown to mediate the effects of calorie restriction on the extension o ...
A review. Histone deacetylase inhibitors are an emerging class of antiproliferative agents that have the potential to combat cancer on an epigenetic level. The recently reported marine natural product largazole was recently isolated in trace amts. from cya ...
Despite their initial characterization as histone deacetylases controlling transcription, sirtuins also turn out to be critical regulators of metabolism. In this issue of Cell, Haigis et al. (2006) demonstrate that the mammalian Sir2 homolog SIRT4 acts in ...
Epigenetic alterations during tumor formation and progression have become an increasingly important aspect of cancer biology. Loss of global methylation at histone H4 lysine 20, mediated by the Suv4-20 HMTases, and loss of methylation at histone H3 lysine ...
This chapter discusses the epigenetics of brain disorders. Epigenetic mechanisms play a pivotal role in higher-order brain functions under physiological and pathological conditions. A deeper understanding of these mechanisms is of utmost importance for the ...
Chromatin remodeling through histone posttranslational modifications (PTMs) and DNA methylation has recently been implicated in cognitive functions, but the mechanisms involved in such epigenetic regulation remain poorly understood. Here, we show that prot ...
The large-scale transfection of mammalian cells allows moderate (milligram to gram) amounts of recombinant proteins (r-proteins) to be obtained for fundamental or clinical research. In this article, we describe a one-liter transfection using polyethyleneim ...
Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid tumor of childhood. One important factor that predicts a favorable prognosis is the robust expression of the TRKA and p75NTR neurotrophin receptor genes. Interestingly, TRKA and p75NTR expression is often ...
