• A high-resolution, nucleosome position map of C. elegans reveals a lack of universal sequence-dictated positioning. (2008, methodology): “Similar results were observed genome-wide relative to transcriptional start sites in yeast ( Yuan et al. 2005; Albert et al. 2007; Lee et al. 2007; Whitehouse et al. 2007; Shivaswamy et al. 2008; Yuan and Liu 2008) as well as in human promoters (Lin et al. 2007; Schones et al. 2008).”
• Dynamic regulation of nucleosome positioning in the human genome. (2008, positive): “For example, a similar nucleosome depletion in the promoter region has been observed using both the MNase digestion strategy and sonication followed by H3-ChIP (Bernstein et al., 2004; Lee et al., 2004; Yuan et al., 2005).”
• Pioneer transcription factors: establishing competence for gene expression. (2011, background): “The pervasiveness of apparent nucleosomefree or nucleosome-destabilized regions at promoters throughout the genome (Yuan et al. 2005; Mavrich et al. 2008) led to the hypothesis that such regions possess sequences that intrinsically destabilize the nucleosome (Segal et al. 2006).”
• Histone variant H2A.Z marks the 5' ends of both active and inactive genes in euchromatin. (2005, background): “Alignment of the microarray data based on the identified NFR of yeast promoters that includes the transcription initiation site (Yuan et al., 2005) revealed that most euchromatic genes contain two positioned H2A.”
• A high-resolution atlas of nucleosome occupancy in yeast (2007, background): “For example, in-depth analysis of the PHO5 andGAL1–GAL10 promoters in yeast shows that nucleosome positioning can be a chief determinant in regulating gene expression4–6.”
• The role of chromatin during transcription. (2007, background): “This region is flanked on both sides by positioned nucleosomes (Yuan et al., 2005).”
