Abstract

A short survey is given upon ALGOL-computer programs which are ready for use also for a biomathematical treatment of morphometrical findings. Thereafter, the numerical and the nonnumerical steps are described following the caryometrical measurements. These steps are formulated algorithmically, constituting the main parts of a computer program for data transforming and evaluation of caryometrical studies by a data processing system.

Decoding ALS from the tail end of RNA.

In this issue of Cell Genomics, McKeever et al.1 generate a single-nucleus transcriptomic atlas of ALS/FTLD brain and reveal widespread alternative polyadenylation changes. Their findings highlight 3' end RNA processing as a central integrator of stress responses, cell-type specificity, and disease susceptibility, offering new mechanistic insight and potential therapeutic directions.

Acidification-and-recovery induces nuclear accumulation of neutral red and DNA into human KB oral carcinoma cells.

In cultures of oral cancers, gene transfer has been achieved by delivery systems which introduce DNA into cells but not specifically into the nucleus. We observed that acidification and recovery converted the nuclear-insulated interphase KB carcinoma cells into intense nuclear-accumulating states. Nuclear sequestration of the vital dye neutral red and T7 oligonucleotide was demonstrated qualitatively, and quantitatively by image analysis of single cells. pGem beta gal plasmids of 6.8 kb were introduced into KB cells by similar acidification and recovery pulses. Successful integration into the host KB genome was shown by expression of the lacZ gene of the plasmids. Enhanced nucleo-cytoplasmic transport demonstrated here in KB oral epidermoid carcinoma cells could potentially facilitate gene therapy in oral cancers.

Modulation of the higher-order folding of chromatin by deletion of histone H3 and H4 terminal domains.

The 'tails' of histones H3 and H4 were removed by light in situ trypsin digestion of the nuclei. The alterations in the higher-order folding of chromatin resulting from this treatment were monitored by ethidium bromide titration. We found that DNA-intercalation of ethidium bromide under these conditions exhibited a complex concentration effect that was dependent on the extent of chromatin folding. This most likely reflects the structural transitions of chromatin during its folding as a result of the changes in the nucleosome linker twist [Woodcock, Grigoryev, Horowitz and Whitaker (1993) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 90, 9021-9025]. These results strongly suggest that the H3 and H4 terminal domains play a very important role in chromatin folding. We discuss the molecular basis of this phenomenon and propose a novel generalized model for the higher-order folding of chromatin.
