Research Abstract |
We deleted the budding yeast ARP6 gene and analyzed the expression of genes responsible for ethanol fermentation and spacial localization of genes in the nucleus. We also analyzed the spacial localization of a chromatin regions to which Arp6 or a histone variant H2A.Z was artificially bound. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation assay, it was shown that Arp6-bound chromatin bond to nuclear pore complex and that H2A.Z-bound chromatin bonds also to Mps3, a nuclear membrane protein. These observations suggests that these nuclear membrane proteins have roles in the spatial arrangement of genes, including ones for ethanol fermentation.
