Remodelatge de la cromatina durant la inducció per progesterona del promotor de l'MMTV Authors Guillermo P. Vicent A. Silvina Nacht Jaume Clausell Thomas Bechtold Cecilia Ballaré Miguel Beato del Rosal Abstract Understanding the mechanisms governing the expression of the genes encompassed in the eukaryotic genomes requires a careful consideration of the way regulatory regions of these genes are packaged in chromatin. Differences in the chromatin organization and in the chemical modifications of chromatin components account for the different patterns of gene expression in various cell types and for their specific response to external signals. Based on our studies on the hormonal induction of mouse mammary tumour virus (MMTV) promoter we conclude that the primary nucleotide sequence determines not only the way theDNAdouble helix wraps around the histone octamer, and so the accessibility of binding sites for transcription factors, but also the way these factors synergize and the nature of the ATP-dependent chromatin remodelling. Moreover, signalling via crosstalk with cytoplasmic kinase cascades changes the chromatin structure of target genes and is essential for proper regulation by steroid hormone receptors.
