染色质被广泛地化学修饰,从而充当控制基因功能的动态信号平台。染色质调节是细胞分化、谱系定型和生物体发育不可或缺的,而染色质失调可导致年龄相关和神经退行性疾病以及癌症。研究染色质生物学提出了一个独特的挑战,因为这个问题跨越了许多学科,包括细胞和系统生物学,生物化学和分子生物物理学。近年来,应用化学生物学方法研究染色质过程获得了相当大的牵引力。事实上,化学生物学家现在拥有强大的化学工具,可以在细胞水平上仔细检查染色质生物学,一直到单个染色质纤维。在这里,我们提出了最近的例子,如何快速扩大调色板的化学工具正在被用来描绘一个详细的图片染色质功能在生物体发育和疾病。
Chromatin is extensively chemically modified and thereby acts as a dynamic signaling platform controlling gene function. Chromatin regulation is integral to cell differentiation, lineage commitment and organism development, whereas chromatin dysregulation can lead to age-related and neurodegenerative disorders as well as cancer. Investigating chromatin biology presents a unique challenge, as the issue spans many disciplines, including cell and systems biology, biochemistry and molecular biophysics. In recent years, the application of chemical biology methods for investigating chromatin processes has gained considerable traction. Indeed, chemical biologists now have at their disposal powerful chemical tools that allow chromatin biology to be scrutinized at the level of the cell all the way down to the single chromatin fiber. Here we present recent examples of how this rapidly expanding palette of chemical tools is being used to paint a detailed picture of chromatin function in organism development and disease.
