ATP-dependent nucleosome-remodeling enzymes and covalent modifiers of chromatin set the functional state of chromatin. However, how these enzymatic activities are coordinated in the nucleus is largely unknown. We found that the evolutionary conserved nucleosome-remodeling ATPase ISWI and the poly-ADP-ribose polymerase PARP genetically interact. We present evidence showing that ISWI is target of poly-ADP-ribosylation. Poly-ADP-ribosylation counteracts ISWI function in vitro and in vivo. Our work suggests that ISWI is a physiological target of PARP and that poly-ADP-ribosylation can be a new, important post-translational modification regulating the activity of ATP-dependent nucleosome remodelers.

Adenosin triphosphate (ATP)-dependent nucleosome remodeling factors sculpt the nucleosomal landscape of eukaryotic chromatin. They deposit, evict, or reposition nucleosomes along DNA in a process termed nucleosome sliding. Remodeling has traditionally been analyzed using mononucleosomes as a model substrate.

Article Synopsis
- The study examined clinical differences among various antibody phenotypes in 293 patients with dermatomyositis (DM) from 2018 to 2023.
- Key findings revealed that patients with anti-MDA5 antibodies were more likely to experience respiratory issues and fever, while those with anti-TIF1-γ antibodies had higher rates of malignancy and certain skin symptoms.
- Prognostic factors influencing survival included age at onset, presence of fever, eosinophil levels, and complement 3 levels, with specific impacts identified through statistical analysis.

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) establishes a latent infection, and viral genes are poised to be transcribed in the latent chromatin. In the poised chromatins, KSHV latency-associated nuclear antigen (LANA) interacts with cellular chromodomain-helicase-DNA-binding protein 4 (CHD4) and inhibits viral promoter activation. CHD4 is known to regulate cell differentiation by preventing enhancers from activating promoters.

Widespread metastases continue to be a massive challenge for colorectal cancer (CRC) therapy and contribute to the high mortality rate in patients with CRC. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a novel group of endogenous RNAs identified as agents modulating tumorigenesis and aggressiveness with tissue heterogeneity. However, the biological functions of circRNAs in CRC metastasis remain largely unknown.

Background: Ubiquitination plays a key role in various cancers, and F-box and WD repeat domain containing 7 (FBW7) is a tumor suppressor that targets several cancer-causing proteins for ubiquitination. This paper set out to pinpoint the role of FBW7 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
Methods: The target proteins of FBW7 and the expression of hromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 3 () were analyzed in liver HCC (LIHC) samples using the BioSignal Data website.
