Histone H1 participates in chromatin condensation and regulates nuclear processes. Human somatic cells may contain up to seven histone variants, although their functional heterogeneity is not fully understood. Here, we have profiled the differential distribution of repertoire human through imaging techniques including super-resolution microscopy. variants exhibit characteristic patterns both interphase mitosis. H1.2, H1.3, H1.5 are universally enriched at periphery all cell lines analyzed co-localize with compacted DNA. H1.0 shows a less pronounced peripheral localization, apparent variability among different lines. On other hand, H1.4 H1X distributed throughout nucleus, being high-GC regions abundant nucleoli. Interestingly, show more lacking H1.3 H1.5. The suggest specific functionalities organizing lamina-associated domains or nucleolar activity, which further supported by distinct response phosphorylated inhibition ribosomal DNA transcription. Moreover, depletion affects structure variant-specific manner. Concretely, H1.2 knock-down, either alone combined, triggers global decompaction. Overall, has allowed us distinguish beyond segregation two groups denoted previous ChIP-Seq determinations. Our results support that functionality can be shared between types.

Organization of the genome into euchromatin and heterochromatin appears to be evolutionarily conserved relatively stable during lineage differentiation. In an effort unravel basic principle underlying folding, here we focus on itself report a fundamental role for L1 (LINE1 or LINE-1) B1/Alu retrotransposons, most abundant subclasses repetitive sequences, in chromatin compartmentalization. We find that homotypic clustering demarcates grossly exclusive domains, characterizes predicts Hi-C compartments.

B-type lamins are critical nuclear envelope proteins that interact with the three-dimensional genomic architecture. However, identifying direct roles of B-lamins on dynamic genome organization has been challenging as their joint depletion severely impacts cell viability. To overcome this, we engineered mammalian cells to rapidly and completely degrade endogenous using Auxin-inducible degron technology.

In eukaryotic cells, the nucleus houses genomic material of cell. The physical properties and its ability to sense external mechanical cues are tightly linked regulation cellular events, such as gene expression. Nuclear mechanics morphology altered in many diseases cancer premature ageing syndromes. Therefore, it is important understand how different components contribute nuclear processes, organisation mechanics, they misregulated disease. Although, over years, studies have focused on lamina—a mesh intermediate filament proteins residing between chromatin membrane—there growing evidence that structure factors regulate essential contributors nucleus.
