ToexplorethemolecularmechanismofchromatinremodelinginvolvedintheregulationoftranscriptionalactivationofspecificgenesbyamyogenicregulatoryfactorMyogenin,weusedNIH3T3fibroblastswithastablyintegratedH1.1-GFPfusionproteintomonitorhistoneH1movementdirectlybyfluorescencerecov-eryafterphotobleaching(FRAP)inlivingcells.TheobservationfromFRAPexperimentswithmyogenintransfectedfibroblastsshowedthattheexchangerateofhistoneH1inchromatinwasobviouslyincreased,indicatingthatforcedexpressionofexogenousMyogenincaninducechromatinremodeling.Thehyper-acetylationofhistonesH3andH4frommyogenintransfectedfibroblastswasdetectedbytriton-acid-urea(TAU)/SDS(2-D)electrophoresisandWesternblotwithspecificantibodiesagainstacetylatedN-terminiofhistonesH3andH4.RT-PCRanalysisindicatedthatthenAChRa-subunitgenewasexpressedinthetrans-fectedfibroblasts.TheseresultssuggestthattheexpressionofexogenousMyogenincaninducechromatinremodelingandactivatethetranscriotionofMvogenin-targetedgeneinnon-musclecells.
