    Notizen: During the development of multicellular organisms, cells become different from one another by changing their genetic program in response to transient stimuli. Long after the stimulus is gone, "cellular memory" mechanisms enable cells to remember their chosen fate over many cell divisions. The Polycomb and Trithorax groups of proteins, respectively, work to maintain repressed or active transcription states of developmentally important genes through many rounds of cell division. Here we review current ideas on the protein and DNA components of this transcriptional memory system and how they interact dynamically with each other to orchestrate cellular memory for several hundred genes.

    Notizen: [Auszug] Writing words in bold or italics does not change the overall meaning of a passage of text. But it does emphasize the importance of that part of the text, changing the way in which it should be read. One could compare the formatting of text in this way to the effects of modifying histone proteins ...

    Notizen: [Auszug] In the desert, vast tracts of land are lifeless, interrupted only by the occasional oasis. In our cells, part of the genome seems similarly devoid of life. Apart from a few oases of activity, most of the genetic information in this part is silenced — it is never switched on. This region, ...

    The nuclear distribution of Polycomb during Drosophila melanogaster development shown with a GFP fusion protein (1999)

    Notizen: Abstract. The chromatin protein Polycomb (PC) is necessary for keeping homeotic genes repressed in a permanent and heritable manner. PC is part of a large multimeric complex (PcG proteins) involved in generating silenced chromatin domains at target genes, thus preventing their inappropriate expression. In order to assess the intranuclear distribution of PC during mitosis in different developmental stages as well as in the germ line we generated transgenic fly lines expressing a PC-GFP (Green Fluorescent Protein) fusion protein. Rapidly dividing nuclei were found to display a rather homogeneous PC-GFP distribution. However, with increasing differentiation a pronounced subnuclear pattern was observed. In all investigated diploid somatic tissues the bulk of PC-GFP fusion protein is depleted from the chromosomes during mitosis: however, a detectable fraction remains associated. In the male germ line in early spermatogenesis, PC-GFP was closely associated with the chromosomal bivalents and gradually lost at later stages. Interestingly, we found that PC is associated with the nucleolus in spermatocytes, unlike somatic nuclei. In contrast to mature sperm showing no PC-GFP signal the female germ line retains PC in the germinal vesicle.

    Mapping functional domains of the Polycomb protein ofDrosophila melanogaster (1995)

    Notizen: Abstract InDrosophila the Polycomb group (Pc-G) proteins are responsible for the stable and heritable silencing of genes. The Pc-G apparently uses heterochromatin-like mechanisms to transcriptionally inactivate developmental regulators such as the homeotic genes. The Polycomb (Pc) protein is part of a large multimeric complex composed of other members of the Pc-G. We have identified functionally relevant domains of the Pc protein by sequencing differentPc alleles. Additionally, using a Pc-βgal fusion protein with deleted internal histidine repeats, we found that this mutant protein cannot bind to four particular target loci, but otherwise does not change the remaining overall binding pattern. We show that, in contrast to the dotted subnuclear localization of the wild-type protein, the nuclear distribution of mutant proteins becomes homogeneous. Surprisingly, inPc mutants the polyhomeotic protein, another member of the Pc-G, is also redistributed in the nucleus. Our results indicate that the appropriate subnuclear localization of the two proteins is critical for the silencing function of the Pc-G complex.

    Spreading the silence: Epigenetic transcriptional regulation during Drosophila development (1994)

    Notizen: In early Drosophila development a complex cascade of diffusible transcription factors generates an intricate expression pattern of developmental regulators such as the homeotic genes. The mechanism which subsequently maintains the pattern during the rest of development is mainly using epigenetic features for its function. Evidence comes from the analysis of the Polycomb-group (Pc-G), a class of genes which is responsible for maintaining the inactive state of expression. The Pc-G was found to share many parallels to genes involved in heterochromatin formation. Different members of the Pc-G interact in large multiprotein complexes, which apparently can cover and inactivate large chromosomal domains. Specific DNA elements have been identified that are used by the Pc-G proteins to nucleate these specialized domains of silent chromatin. Thus, the Pc-G proteins appear to permanently inactivate genes by generating heterochromatin-like structures which could then be inherited by the daughter cells in an epigenetic manner. Heritable gene silencing is an important but little understood mechanism in pattern formation. Phenomenologically related effects have been observed in many organisms. These range from the transcriptional silencing of the inactive mating type loci in yeast to parental imprinting phenomena and X-chromosome inactivation in mammals. Analysis of these functions in Drosophila provides an excellent model system for studying the molecular basis of such epigenetic mechanisms that use higher order chromatin structures for transcriptional repression. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
