Histone H3K9 methylation (H3K9me) by Setdb1 silences retrotransposons (rTE) by sequestering them in constitutive heterochromatin. Atf7IP is a constitutive binding partner of Setdb1 and is responsible for Setdb1 nuclear localization, activation and chromatin recruitment. However, structural details of the Setdb1/Atf7IP interaction have not been evaluated.

Despite much work, LAD structure and regulation are not fully understood, and a mounting number of studies have identified numerous genetic and epigenetic differences within LADs, demonstrating they are not a uniform group. Here we profile Lamin B1, HP1β, H3K9me3, H3K9me2, H3K27me3, H3K14ac, H3K27ac, and H3K9ac in MEF cell lines derived from the same mouse colony and cluster LADs based on the abundance and distribution of these features across LADs.

Dissection of the physiological interactomes of histone post-translational modifications (hPTMs) is crucial for understanding epigenetic regulatory pathways. Peptide- or protein-based histone photoaffinity tools expanded the ability to probe the epigenetic interactome, but in situ profiling in native cells remains challenging. Here, we develop a nucleus-targeting histone-tail-based photoaffinity probe capable of profiling the hPTM-mediated interactomes in native cells, by integrating cell-permeable and nuclear localization peptide modules into an hPTM peptide equipped with a photoreactive moiety.

To understand the clinicopathological and molecular genetic characteristics of aggressive renal mucinous tubular and spindle cell carcinoma (MTSCC). The clinical features, histology, immunophenotype, molecular characteristics and prognosis of 4 cases of metastatic/recurrent renal MTSCC that were submitted to the Peking University Third Hospital (2 cases), Institute of Urology, Peking University (one case) and Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital (one case) from 2015 to 2020 were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed. Among the four patients, two were male and two were female.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease where pain, driven by both inflammatory and non-inflammatory processes, is a major concern for patients. This pain can persist even after joint inflammation subsides. High mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) is a non-histone-DNA binding protein located in the nucleus that plays a key role in processes such as DNA transcription, recombination, and replication.
