Geminivirus R ep protein interferes with the plant DNA methylation machinery and suppresses transcriptional gene silencing

…, L Cruzado, ER Bejarano, AG Castillo - New …, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
Cytosine methylation is an epigenetic mark that promotes gene silencing and plays an important
role in genome defence against transposons and invading DNA viruses. Previous data …

[PDF][PDF] Fission yeast Scm3: A CENP-A receptor required for integrity of subkinetochore chromatin

…, ES Choi, JKR Abbott, X Liu, A Kagansky, AG Castillo… - Molecular cell, 2009 - cell.com
The mechanisms ensuring specific incorporation of CENP-A at centromeres are poorly
understood. Mis16 and Mis18 are required for CENP-A localization at centromeres and form a …

[HTML][HTML] Dual interaction of plant PCNA with geminivirus replication accessory protein (Ren) and viral replication protein (Rep)

AG Castillo, D Collinet, S Deret, A Kashoggi… - Virology, 2003 - Elsevier
Geminiviruses replicate their small, single-stranded DNA genomes in plant nuclei using host
replication machinery. Similar to most dicotyledonous plant-infecting geminiviruses, Tomato …

[HTML][HTML] Identification of noncoding transcripts from within CENP-A chromatin at fission yeast centromeres

ES Choi, A Strålfors, AG Castillo… - Journal of Biological …, 2011 - ASBMB
The histone H3 variant CENP-A is the most favored candidate for an epigenetic mark that
specifies the centromere. In fission yeast, adjacent heterochromatin can direct CENP-A Cnp1 …

[HTML][HTML] Factors That Promote H3 Chromatin Integrity during Transcription Prevent Promiscuous Deposition of CENP-ACnp1 in Fission Yeast

ES Choi, A Strålfors, S Catania, AG Castillo… - 2012 - journals.plos.org
Specialized chromatin containing CENP-A nucleosomes instead of H3 nucleosomes is found
at all centromeres. However, the mechanisms that specify the locations at which CENP-A …

Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Sardinia Virus Rep-Derived Resistance to Homologous and Heterologous Geminiviruses Occurs by Different Mechanisms and Is Overcome …

…, A Brunetti, R Tavazza, V Ruzza, AG Castillo… - Journal of …, 2003 - Am Soc Microbiol
The replication-associated protein (Rep) of geminiviruses is involved in several biological
processes brought about by the presence of distinct functional domains. Recently, we have …

Two fundamentally distinct PCNA interaction peptides contribute to chromatin assembly factor 1 function

TR Ben-Shahar, AG Castillo, MJ Osborne… - … and cellular biology, 2009 - Taylor & Francis
Chromatin assembly factor 1 (CAF-1) deposits histones H3 and H4 rapidly behind replication
forks through an interaction with the proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), a DNA …
