description Cell biology: Interaction of DNA-winding proteins ensures correct gene expression Crosstalk between different DNA-winding proteins, or histones, is a mechanism of molecular fidelity that helps prevent the initiation of aberrant gene expression, which may contribute to cancer and neurodegenerative disease. A team from South Korea, led by Jungmin Choi from the Korea University College of Medicine in Seoul and Hong-Yeoul Ryu from Kyungpook National University in Daegu, review the ways in which different histone proteins chemically modify parts of each other’s structure to regulate their functions. These modifications affect how histones interact with DNA, which in turn alters the dynamics of other factors implicated in gene expression. The correct interaction of histones is necessary to prevent the gene expression machinery from starting RNA synthesis from the wrong sites. Accurate control of these mechanisms is essential for cellular wellbeing
