Single Molecule Analysis of CENP-A Chromatin by High-Speed Atomic Force Microscopy

D. P. Melters, K. C. Neuman, T. Rakshit, Y. Dalal

The paper uses high-speed atomic force microscopy to analyze single-molecule dynamics of CENP-A nucleosomes and shows how CENP-C affects their mobility and chromatin accessibility.

The ratio between centromeric proteins CENP-A and CENP-C maintains homeostasis of human centromeres

D. P. Melters, T. Rakshit, M. Bui, S. A. Grigoryev, D. Sturgill, Y. Dalal

The paper shows that maintaining the CENP-A to CENP-C ratio is critical for centromere homeostasis, as disrupting this balance causes mitotic defects.

Intrinsic elasticity of nucleosomes is encoded by histone variants and calibrated by their binding partners

D. P. Melters, M. Pitman, T. Rakshit, E. K. Dimitriadis, M. Bui, G. A. Papoian, Y. Dalal

The paper investigates how histone variants encode intrinsic elasticity in nucleosomes and how their binding partners modulate this elasticity and chromatin compaction.
