Chromatin Dynamics in Genome Stability: Roles in Suppressing Endogenous DNA Damage and Facilitating DNA Repair

Abstract: Genomic DNA is compacted into chromatin through packaging with histone and non-histone proteins. Importantly, DNA accessibility is dynamically regulated to ensure genome stability. This is exemplified in the response to DNA damage where chromatin relaxation near genomic lesions serves to promote access of relevant enzymes to specific DNA regions for signaling and repair. Furthermore, recent data highlight genome maintenance roles of chromatin through the regulation of endogenous DNA-templated processes includi… Show more

“…Furthermore, our data indicate that SET8 regulates chromatin compaction and maintains genome stability specifically via histone H4K20 methylation. Overall, these findings support the notion that chromatin structural organization in G1 phase allows for fine-tuned regulation of DNA-based processes, such as replication, thereby preventing replication stress and endogenous damage 55 .…”

“…Furthermore, the observed decrease in chromatin-NE association in IR treated cells could be explained by changes in irradiationinduced chromatin dynamics. Accordingly, upon induction of double strand breaks, chromatin decondensation has been observed at damaged sites (53,54), as well as, enhanced mobility of damaged chromatin in eukaryotic cells (55,56), which in turn affects chromatin-NE association.…”
