ABSTRACT Genome replication in eukaryotic cells necessitates the stringent coupling of histone biosynthesis with the onset of DNA replication at the G1/S phase transition. A fundamental question is the mechanism that links the restriction (R) point late in G1 with histone gene expression at the onset of S phase. Here we demonstrate that HiNF-P, a transcriptional regulator of replication-dependent histone H4 genes, interacts directly with p220NPAT, a substrate of cyclin E/CDK2, to coactivate histone genes during S phase. HiNF-P and p220 are targeted to, and colocalize at, subnuclear foci (Cajal bodies) in a cell cycle-dependent manner. Genetic or biochemical disruption of the HiNF-P/p220 interaction compromises histone H4 gene activation at the G1/S phase transition and impedes cell cycle progression. Our results show that HiNF-P and p220 form a critical regulatory module that directly links histone H4 gene expression at the G1/S phase transition to the cyclin E/CDK2 signaling pathway at the R point.

The N-terminal serine and four conserved lysine residues near the N-terminus of yeast histone H4 are acetylated. We found that a mutation that changed the fourth lysine to alanine resulted in specific derepression of the silent mating type locus HML, while mutations that altered the N-terminal serine or the first three lysines had only minor phenotypic effects. Our results support an active role for histone H4 in the silencing of gene expression at this locus.

ABSTRACT A model for the protracted (30-day) colonization of smooth surfaces by Streptococcus gordonii that incorporates the nutrient flux that occurs in the oral cavity was developed. This model was used to characterize the biphasic expansion of the adherent bacterial population, which corresponded with the emergence of higher-order architectures characteristic of biofilms. Biofilm formation by S. gordonii was observed to be influenced by the presence of simple sugars including sucrose, glucose, and fructose. Real-time PCR was used to quantify changes in expression of S. gordonii genes known or thought to be involved in biofilm formation. Morphological changes were accompanied by a significant shift in gene expression patterns. The majority of S. gordonii genes examined were observed to be downregulated in the biofilm phase. Genes found to be upregulated in the biofilm state were observed to encode products related to environmental sensing and signaling.

Ameloblastoma is a common odontogenic epithelial tumor that exhibits various biological behaviors, ranging from simple cystic expansion to aggressive solid masses characterized by local invasiveness, a high risk of recurrence, and even malignant transformation. We report on two cases of unusually large solid ameloblastomas. We detected epithelial–mesenchymal transition-related gene expression and HRAS gene single nucleotide polymorphisms, providing possible molecular evidence of mesenchymal morphological changes in ameloblastoma. The detailed analysis of the pathogenesis of these two cases of ameloblastoma may deepen our understanding of this rare disease and offer promising targets for future targeted therapy.
