9. Genome Analysis of Nucleosome Spacing linker Nucleosome

10. ISWI is a Nucleosome Spacing Factor The implication is that ISWI chromatin remodelers can organize chromatin into a more repressive configuration, OR a more active one Since yeast has two ISWI ATPases with different effects on chromatin in vitro, they may have evolved contrasting activities

12. Nucleosome Positioning (Phasing) Positioning may affect which regions of DNA are in the linker and which face of DNA is exposed on the nucleosome surface Translationally Positioned Nucleosomes Displacement of the DNA by 10 bp changes the sequences that are in the more exposed linker regions but does not alter which face of the DNA is protected by the histone surface and which is exposed to the exterior regions

13. DNAse I digestion and chromatin remodeling

14. Rotational Positioning describes the ‘Exposure’ of DNA on the surface of the Nucleosome and Determines its Interactions with Proteins and other Factors. Rotational Positioning Nuclease resistant Any movement that differs from the helical repeat (~10.2 bp/turn) displaces DNA with reference to the histone Surface A translational movement of half a helical turn (e.g., 5 bp) will alter the surface exposure of a DNA sequence Nucleotides on the inside next to the histone octamer are more protected against nucleases than nucleotides on the outside.

15. Nucleosome movement during nucleosome remodeling alter nucleosome phasing

16. Histones can be modified by – Acetylation (Ac) – Ubiquitination (Ub) – Methylation (Me) – Phosphorylation (P) – Sumoylation (Su) Unwrapping of chromatin can be facilitated two phenomenon: Changes in DNA methylation within promoters, CpG islands, and genic/intergenic regions. Modification in histones or histone variants.

18. Map Target Protein DNA Binding Sites and Methylated DNA Regions Using Robust Protocols  Chromatin immunoprecipitation-on-chip (ChIPchip) is a powerful tool to map target protein DNA binding sites across entire genomes or within biologically important regions such as promoters. This method is used to map chromatin structure and DNA binding sites of transcription factors andpolymerases.  Methylated DNA regions are accurately mapped using a combination of affinity-based enrichment, such as Methylated DNA Immunoprecipitation (MeDIP) or the Methylated CpG Island Recovery Assay (MIRA), followed by microarray analysis. CpG islands are genomic regions that contain dense clusters of CG dinucleotides that are often associated with gene promoters

21. – A high throughput technology that allows detection of thousands of genes simultaneously – Principle: base-pairing hybridization Base-pairing – DNA: A-T and G-C – RNA: A-U and G-C – Much rely on computer aids – Central platform for functional genomics Microarray

22. Types of DNAmicroarraysand their uses What is measured depends on the chip design andthe laboratory protocol: –Expression Measure mRNA expression levels (usuallypolyadenylated mRNA) –Resequencing Detect changes in genomic regions of interest –Tiling Tiles probes over an entire genome for various applications (novel transcripts,ChIP, epigenetic modifications) –SNP Detect which knownSNPsare in the tested DNA

23. Affymetrix Microarray Gene Chips Two types of microarray chips cDNA chips: Probe cDNA (500~5,000 bases long) is immobilized oligo chip: Oligonucleotide (20~80-mer oligos) is synthesized either in situ (on-chip) or by conventional synthesis followed by on-chip immobilization

26. Clustering of entire yeast genome

27. The total genome activity of transcription factors and epigenetic modifications are far more complex than previously predicted. It is no longer sufficient to limit regulatory studies to promoter regions or defined genomic loci. To better understand the regulation of transcription, an unbiased, whole- genome approach is needed to reveals the full regulatory network activity of transcription factors and epigenetic modifications.
