Dynamics of chromatin structure in model and pathogenic yeasts (CHRYEASTS)

Start date: Sep 15, 2007, End date: Sep 14, 2010,

In eukaryotic organisms, essential processes such as RNA transcription, DNA replication and repair are dependent on chromatin structure. Chromatin modifying enzymes are critical for the dynamic regulation of chromatin structure during the cell cycle and the maintenance of proper cell function. The proposal is focused on the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Esa1 protein, a member of the conserved MYST fami ...
