Cleavage of histone H2A during embryonic stem cell differentiation destabilizes nucleosomes to counteract gene activation

Mariel Coradin, Elizabeth G. Poulsen Porter, Francisca N. de Luna Vitorino, Richard M. Searfoss, Joseph Cesare, Yemin Lan, Zhexin Zhu, Peder J. Lund, Simone Sidoli, Yekaterina Perez, Congcong Lu, Justin Brumbaugh, Charles W.M. Roberts, Benjamin Aaron Garcia

The paper shows that cleavage of histone H2A by Cathepsin L during ESC differentiation reduces nucleosome stability and counteracts gene activation.

Histone H3.3 lysine 9 and 27 control repressive chromatin states at cryptic cis-regulatory elements and bivalent promoters in mouse embryonic stem cells

Matteo Trovato, Daria Bunina, Umut Yildiz, Nadine Fernandez-Novel Marx, Michael Uckelmann, Vita Levina, Yekaterina Perez, Ana Janeva, Benjamin A. Garcia, Chen Davidovich, Judith B. Zaugg, Kyung‐Min Noh

This study shows that H3.3K9 and K27 modifications regulate repressive chromatin states at cis-regulatory elements and bivalent promoters in mESCs, affecting gene expression.
