[Abstract] Chromosome conformation capture sequencing (Hi-C) is a powerful method to comprehensively interrogate the three-dimensional positioning of chromatin in the nucleus. The development of Hi-C can be traced back to successive increases in the resolution and throughput of chromosome conformation capture (3C) (Dekker et al., 2002). The basic workflow of 3C consists of (i) fixation of intact chromatin, usually by formaldehyde, (ii) cutting the fixed chromatin with a restriction enzyme, (iii) religation of sticky ends under diluted conditions to favor ligations between cross-linked fragments or those between random fragments and (iv) quantifying the number of ligations events between pairs of genomic loci (de Wit and de Laat, 2012). In the original 3C protocol, ligation frequency was ...
[摘要] 染色体构象捕获测序（Hi-C）是一种全面询问细胞核中染色质三维定位的有效方法。 Hi-C的发展可以追溯到染色体构象捕获的分辨率和通量的连续增加（3C）（Dekker et al。，2002）。 3C的基本工作流程包括（i）通常用甲醛固定完整的染色质，（ii）用限制酶切割固定的染色质，（iii）在稀释条件下重新连接粘性末端，以促进交联片段之间的连接或随机片段之间的那些和（iv）量化基因组基因座对之间的连接事件的数量（de Wit和de Laat，2012）。在最初的3C方案中，通过半定量PCR扩增对应于少量基因组位点（“一对一”）的选定连接接头来测量连接频率（Dekker et al。，2002 ）。然后，染色体构象捕获芯片（4C）和染色体构象捕获碳复制（5C）技术扩展3C以分别以“一对多”或“多对多”方式计算结扎事件。 Hi-C（Lieberman-Aiden et al。，2009）最终将3C与下一代测序相结合（Metzker，2010）。此处，在再连接之前，用生物素标记的核苷酸类似物填充粘性末端以在后续步骤中富集具有连接连接的片段。然后对Hi-C文库进行高通量测序，并将得到的读数映射到参考基因组，允许以“多对多”方式确定接触概率，其分辨率仅受限制性位点的分布限制和阅读深度。 Hi-C的首次应用是阐明人类基因组中的全球染色质折叠原理（Lieberman-Aiden et ...

[Abstract] The plant cell wall is a physical barrier, which fulfills a plethora of functions, for example it can efficiently prevent pathogen’s entry into the cell. In addition, its changing composition contributes to plants inducible defense mechanisms. This layer of defense includes pathogen perception and is followed by the activation of defense responses resulting, among others, in a modification and remodeling of the cell wall. This relatively late defense response (hours or days after contact with pathogen) comprises the accumulation of polysaccharides, such as the 1,3-ß-glucan callose, phenolic compounds and reactive oxygen species. Callose depositions occur during normal plant growth (e.g. in the phloem), they can be also a response to different stress stimuli. During the response ...
[摘要] 植物细胞壁是物理屏障，其实现过多的功能，例如它可以有效地防止病原体进入细胞。此外，其变化的组成有助于植物诱导防御机制。该防御层包括病原体感知，并且随后是防御反应的激活，导致尤其是细胞壁的修饰和重塑。这种相对较晚的防御反应（与病原体接触后的几小时或几天）包括多糖例如1,3-β-葡聚糖胼cal质，酚类化合物和活性氧簇的积累。 Callose沉积在正常植物生长期间（例如在韧皮部中）发生，它们也可以是对不同应激刺激的反应。在对病原体攻击的反应期间，胼lose质沉积是细胞壁增强的必要部分，并且对于成功的植物防御是重要的。在这里，我们描述了染色胼lose体位置斑点的方法，其可以用于量化该防御反应。
