染色体是生物化学研究中最具挑战性的底物之一。这是因为基因组DNA在物理上与一组惊人的核因子相关联,这些核因子不仅以稳定的形式存储核酸,而且在需要时还允许访问它编码的信息。理解这种复杂的分子编排是表观遗传学领域的核心。这一领域的巨大挑战之一是超越目前供应充足的相关类型信息,使我们能够真正在分子水平上将这些点连接起来。建立这样的因果关系需要精确地操纵染色质的共价结构。用于此目的的工具目前供不应求,这创造了一个机会,正如我们将在本观点中讨论的那样,它非常适合化学家的敏感性。
Chromosomes present one of most challenging of all substrates for biochemical study. This is because genomic DNA is physically associated with an astonishing collection of nuclear factors, which serve to not only store the nucleic acid in a stable form, but also grant access to the information it encodes when needed. Understanding this complex molecular choreography is central to the field of epigenetics. One of the great challenges in this area is to move beyond correlative type information, which is now in abundant supply, to the point where we can truly connect the dots at the molecular level. Establishing such causal relationships requires precise manipulation of the covalent structure of chromatin. Tools for this purpose are currently in short supply, creating an opportunity that, as we will argue in this Perspective, is well suited to the sensibilities of the chemist.
