Summary from the GEO: "Linker histone H1 proteins bind to nucleosomes and cause chromatin compaction, although little is known about their biological functions. Histone H1 (HIST1H1B-E) mutations are highly recurrent in B-cell lymphomas and are present in solid tumors, but their cancer relevance and mechanism are unknown. Here we report that lymphoma-associated H1 alleles are genetic driver mutations...

Summary from the GEO: "Heterochromatin-specific histone modifications frequently coexist with mammalian DNA methylation to orchestrate a repressive chromatin state. However, it remains elusive how these epigenetic modifications crosstalk. Here, we report that the first bromoadjacent homology (BAH1) domain and the replication foci targeting sequence (RFTS) of maintenance DNA methyltransferase DNMT1...

Summary from the GEO: "We used ChIP-seq to determine the whole-genome enrichment of histone H3 threonine 11 phosphorylation (H3 T11ph) during Saccharomyces cerevisiae meiosis. S. cerevisiae SK1 cells were synchronized for meiotic entry and 3 and 4 hour meiotic samples were obtained. As H3 T11ph is dependent on the formation of meiotic double strand breaks (DSBs), a negative control ChIP-seq sample...

Summary from the GEO: "Saccharomyces cerevisiae Mek1 is a CHK2/Rad53-family kinase that regulates meiotic recombination and progression upon its activation in response to DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). The full catalog of direct Mek1 phosphorylation targets remains unknown. Here, we show that phosphorylation of histone H3 on threonine 11 (H3 T11ph) is induced by meiotic DSBs in S. cerevisiae and...

Summary from the GEO: "From biosynthesis to assembly into nucleosomes, histones are handed through a cascade of histone chaperones, which shield histones from non-specific interactions. Whether mechanisms exist to safeguard the histone fold during histone chaperone handover events or to release trapped intermediates is unclear. Using structure-guided and functional proteomics, we identify and characterize...
