Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the ciliate Tetrahymena, the gamete-nuclei formation involves chromatin remodeling induced by a novel DNA double-strand break at the post-meiosis stage. Chromatin remodeling in the pronucleus during the gamete-nuclei formation is an evolutionarily conserved phenomenon. This occurs not only in ciliate but also in animals such as humans. However, the molecular mechanism of this phenomenon has been obscure. This study focused on the chromatin remodelers involved in the euchromatin formation for the gamete-nuclear formation and the changes in the epigenomic state associated with the gamete-nuclear formation. We identified some proteins involved in euchromatin formation and unclosed some parts in the system that controls it.
