Covalent Modification of the Histone Tails Can Alter DNA- Histone Interaction or “Mark” Nucleosomes
Acetylation (lys)
Methylation (Lys)
Phosphorylation (ser)
Ubiquination (Lys)

Chromatin is Dynamic- Remodeling Complexes Alter Structure or Positioning on DNA

Variegated Position Effects Occur When Normally Active Genes Become Heterochromatin~30-40 Loci modify PEV.
•Su(var) Genes suppress variagation.
•HDACs
•E(var) Genes enhance variagation
•Bromo & Chromodomain proteinsBromo domains bind Ac Chromo domains bind Me

A = Activator bound to upstream reg. seq.
HAT = Histone Acetyl Transferase
P = Phosphate
Ac = Acetate
Ki = Kinase

The Histone Code: What do we know for sure? The information required for proper gene
transcription is not just the promotors enhancers and transcription factors
Chromatin structure regulates gene expression Chromatin structure is regulated at different levels
Heterochromatin vs. Euchromatin Nucleosome structure at promoters and other regulatory
sequences Histone modification plays a role in the regulation of
chromatin structure Modification of transcription factors also plays a role We can’t read the code yet!
