Other Topic: Nucleosome positioning

We analyzed a chromatin region of the yeast Chromosome (Chr) IX, in which there are two closely packed open reading frames (ORFs), POT1 and YIL161w. This locus shows a regular ladder of 13 stochastically positioned nucleosomes, which is unaffected by the absence of the HHO1 gene. This suggests that histone H1 has no effect on nucleosome positioning in yeast. [4] [5]


Other Topic: Overlapping Transcription

We have studied the case of two convergent closely packed ORFs (56 bp of separation) in chromosome IX of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. mRNAs from POT1 and YIL161w overlap by up to 115 nt. Convergent transcription causes a small but noticeable negative effect on the level of POT1 mRNA and nucleosome displacement in the intergenic region. This suggests for the first time that some TI could occur in convergently transcribed yeast genes, even in a natural chromosomal context. [6] [5]
