đ§Ź CBP as a Terrain Scribe in Sodium/SCNâ» Collapse
đč 1. Sodium as Signal Conductor â CREB Activation â CBP Recruitment Sodium is the electrical ink. CBP is the scribe. SCNâ» is the redox sealant. đč 2. SCNâ» as Redox Shield â Protects CBP Function SCNâ» preserves the scribeâs quill. Without it, CBP falters under oxidative siege. đč 3. CBP Collapse Mirrors Sodium/SCNâ» Collapse…

Histone acetyltransferase p300
Histone acetyltransferase p300 also known as p300 HAT or E1A-associated protein p300 (where E1A = adenovirus early region 1A) also known as EP300 or p300 is an enzyme that, in humans, is encoded by the EP300 gene. It functions as histone acetyltransferase that regulates transcription of genes via chromatin remodeling by allowing histone proteins to wrap DNA less tightly. This enzyme plays an essential role in regulating cell growth and division, prompting cells to mature and assume specialized functions…

In mouse models of Alzheimer’s Disease, it has been shown that there is a decrease in neuronal histone acetylation, a critical function of CBP
Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease whose pathology is diagnosed based on the presence of neuritic amyloid beta (AÎČ) plaques and neurofibrillary tau (Ï) tangles. Because the exact causes of the disease are not clearly understood, there are a number of different mechanisms by which CBP (CREB-binding protein) is hypothesized to play a role…

Diminished CBP activity and decreased neuronal histone acetylation is associated with Huntington’s Disease
Huntington’s Disease (HD) is a fatal, progressing neurodegenerative disorder that is the result of a genetic mutation in the Huntingtin gene causing synthesis of a mutated huntingtin (Htt) protein. Symptoms most frequently associated with this disease are movement disorders, including impaired motor function, behavioral modification and cognitive impairment that ultimately results in dementia. It has been observed in animal…

Histones
In biology, histones are highly basic proteins abundant in lysine and arginine residues that are found in eukaryotic cell nuclei. They act as spools around which DNA winds to create structural units called nucleosomes.[1][2] Nucleosomes in turn are wrapped into 30-nanometer fibers that form tightly packed chromatin. Histones prevent DNA from becoming tangled and protect it from DNA damage. In addition, histones play important roles in gene regulation and DNA replication. Without histones, unwound DNA in chromosomes would be…

Heterochromatin
Heterochromatin is a tightly packed form of DNA or condensed DNA, which comes in multiple varieties. These varieties lie on a continuum between the two extremes of constitutive heterochromatin and facultative heterochromatin. Both play a role in the expression of genes. Because it is tightly packed, it was thought to be inaccessible to polymerases and therefore not transcribed; however, according to Volpe et…
