AIM: To investigate the correlation of gene modification between histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) trimethylation and DNA methylation in IgA nephropathy patients. METHODS: H3K4 trimethylation variations were analyzed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from 40 IgAN patients and 40 healthy controls by the method of chromatin immunoprecipitation linked to microarrays (ChIP-chip). ChIP real-time PCR was used to validate the microarray results. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was employed to analyze mRNA expression. DNA methylation in 4 selected positive genes was analyzed by the method of methylated DNA immunoprecipitation-quantitative PCR (MeDIP-qPCR). RESULTS: IgAN patients displayed higher H3K4 trimethylation level and lower DNA methylation level than those of the healthy controls. There were significant differences in DNA methylation and H3K4 trimethylation of 4 selected genes between IgAN patients and the healthy controls (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Our studies indicate that significant alterations of H3K4 trimethylation and DNA methylation exist in IgAN patients. There is a correlation of gene modification between DNA mathylation and histone H3 lysine 4 trimethylation in IgAN patients. 相似文献

To study the effect of pollination on fruit development in gynoecious and parthenocarpic cucumbers (Cucumis sativus L. cv. NK × AN8), the number of cells, cell size, mitotic index, histone H4 gene expression, and concentrations of endogenous cytokinins and auxin were compared in fruits that had developed from pollinated and non-pollinated flowers. Fresh weight was more in the pollinated group 4–12 days after anthesis (DAA) in both winter and spring, and 2–6 DAA in the summer. In winter, mitotic index increased from anthesis to 2 DAA and then decreased gradually in the pollinated group but immediately after anthesis in the non-pollinated group. Histone H4 gene in the pericarp zone was expressed more strongly during the period from pre-anthesis to 2 DAA in the pollinated group in summer. Concentrations of zeatin, isopentenyladenine, and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) were higher in the non-pollinated group 2 and 4 DAA and peaked 4 DAA in spring whereas isopentenyladenine and IAA showed no distinct peaks in the pollinated group. These results are incompatible with the idea that pollination activates cell division by stimulating the synthesis of cytokinins and auxin in cucumber fruits. 相似文献

The core histone is composed of four proteins (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4). Investigation of the modification patterns of histones
is critical to understanding their roles in biological processes. Although histone modification is observed in multiple cells
and tissues, little is known about its function in spermatogenesis. We focused on the modification patterns of histone H4
during murine spermatogenesis. We demonstrated that the individual N-terminal sites of H4 show different modification
patterns during the differentiation of male germ cells. The methylation pattern varied depending on the residues that were
mono-, di-, or tri-methylated. All the H4 modifications were high during the meiotic prophase, suggesting that histone H4
modification plays an important role during this stage of spermatogenesis. Elongating spermatids showed increased acetylation
of histone H4, which may be associated with a histone-to-protamine substitution. Our results provide further insight into the
specific relationship between histone H4 modification and gene expression during spermatogenesis, which could help to
elucidate the epigenetic disorders underlying male infertility. 相似文献

在真核生物中,组蛋白是构成核小体的重要成分,其乙酰化与去乙酰化修饰在真核生物基因表达调控中起重要作用。组蛋白乙酰化异常(低乙酰化或高乙酰化)常会引起基因表达紊乱,进而引起疾病的发生。对组蛋白乙酰转移酶(Histone acetyltransferase,HAT)及组蛋白去乙酰化酶(Histone deacetylase,HDAC)的种类,组蛋白乙酰化与去乙酰化与基因表达调控、疾病发生的关系进行了综述。 相似文献

壳聚糖制备工艺的研究 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
利用河蟹壳制备壳聚糖的改进工艺,对脱乙酰度、粘均分子量2项主要指标进行测定.经过极差分析找到了最佳工艺条件,即浓度为15%的氢氧化钠100℃脱蛋白1 h,浓度为15%的盐酸25℃脱钙4.5 h,浓度为45%的氢氧化钠130℃脱乙酰反应3 h.在改进工艺条件下,壳聚糖脱乙酰度在85%以上,粘均分子量大于70万,免去氧化脱色阶段,避免在氧化脱色过程中造成壳聚糖的降解,产物色泽呈灰白或肉色,保证了壳聚糖的质量.这表明,利用盘锦河蟹壳制备壳聚糖,从而改进工艺是可行的. 相似文献

甲壳素在不同NaOH溶液的浓度、不同反应时间和不同反应温度下,制备得到不同脱乙酰度的壳聚糖,并作为烟草薄片的粘合剂.研究了不同脱乙酰度壳聚糖与烟草薄片主要性能品质之间的关系.结果表明:壳聚糖脱乙酰度＜90%时,烟草薄片抗张强度、耐水性和内在品质随脱乙酰度升高而增加;当壳聚糖脱乙酰度＞90%时,则两者呈负相关性. 相似文献

[目的]对动物组蛋白H3K4三甲基化转移酶MLL3进行生物信息学分析。[方法]利用生物信息学的方法,对小鼠MLL3的基因结构、氨基酸序列、系统进化树、染色体定位和共线性等问题进行分析。[结果]编码合成的小鼠MLL3蛋白质一级结构包括7个锌指结构域、1个HMG-box(高迁移率族蛋白)、1个FYRN(N-末端富含苯丙氨酸或酪氨酸区域)、1个FYRC(C-末端富含苯丙氨酸或酪氨酸区域)、1个SET域和1个postSET域;从序列对比和同源性上发现,该研究中的19种动物都基本上具有这些结构,说明这些结构在进化上是相对保守的,其中SET域具有高度的保守性,是维持组蛋白甲基化酶活性所必须的;从系统发生上看,19种动物在进化树上的位置与其分类地位相一致;在共线性分析中,虽然小鼠和人的MLL3基因位于不同的染色体上,但其上游和下游具有相同的基因,说明小鼠和人的MLL3基因具有共线性。[结论]不仅揭示了MLL3的核苷酸序列及其氨基酸序列的一级结构,为以后研究其高级结构和蛋白质的功能奠定了基础;同时也为后期进行小鼠MLL3基因的引物设计、启动子分析、基因的克隆、定位和表达的调控模式研究奠定了基础。 相似文献
