Structural Flexibility of the Nucleosome Core Particle at Atomic Resolution studied by Molecular Dynamics Simulation.

Journal Article Roccatano, Danilo ; Barthel, Andre ; Zacharias, Martin W - Biopolymers, 85(5):407-421

The research described in this product was performed in part in the Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory, a national scientific user facility sponsored by the Department of Energy's Office of Biological and Environmental Research and located at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. Comparative explicit solvent molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been performed on a complete nucleosome core particle with and without N-terminal histone tails for more than 20 ns. Main purpose of the simulations was to study the dynamics of mobile elements such as histone N-terminal tails and how packing and DNA-bending influences the fine structure and dynamics of DNA.

H2A.Z-containing nucleosomes are evicted to activate AtMYB44 transcription in response to salt stress

Journal Article Nguyen, Nguyen Hoai ; Cheong, Jong-Joo - Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications

Highlights: • Salt stress reduces the nucleosome density at AtMYB44 gene-body regions. • H2A.Z occupation at AtMYB44 promoter is decreased under salt stress conditions. • Salt stress diminishes the binding of AtMYB44 proteins on their own gene promoters. Transcripts of the Arabidopsis transcription factor gene, AtMYB44, accumulate rapidly to mediate a tolerance mechanism in response to salt stress. The AtMYB44 promoter is activated by salt stress, as illustrated in AtMYB44pro::GUS transgenic plants. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays revealed that RNA polymerases were enriched on the AtMYB44 gene, especially on TSS-proximal regions, and nucleosome density was markedly reduced in the AtMYB44 gene-bodymore »« less

Elucidation of Agonist and Antagonist Dynamic Binding Patterns in ER-α by Integration of Molecular Docking, Molecular Dynamics Simulations and Quantum Mechanical Calculations

Journal Article Sakkiah, Sugunadevi ; Selvaraj, Chandrabose ; Guo, Wenjing ; ... - International Journal of Molecular Sciences (Online)

Estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) is a ligand-dependent transcriptional factor in the nuclear receptor superfamily. Many structures of ERα bound with agonists and antagonists have been determined. However, the dynamic binding patterns of agonists and antagonists in the binding site of ERα remains unclear. Therefore, we performed molecular docking, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, and quantum mechanical calculations to elucidate agonist and antagonist dynamic binding patterns in ERα. 17β-estradiol (E2) and 4-hydroxytamoxifen (OHT) were docked in the ligand binding pockets of the agonist and antagonist bound ERα. The best complex conformations from molecular docking were subjected to 100 nanosecond MD simulations. Hierarchicalmore »« less
