<▼1><P><B>Significance</B></P><P>The chromatin remodeling activities of the FACT (facilitates chromatin transactions) complex are required for many cellular functions, including transcription, DNA replication, and repair. Here, we demonstrate that the two FACT subunits, SSRP1 and SPT16, are also required for genome-wide DNA demethylation and regulation of gene imprinting during <I>Arabidopsis</I> reproduction. Without FACT, <I>Arabidopsis</I> seeds undergo abnormal development and exhibit aberrant DNA hypermethylation, including at imprinting control region loci. We show that FACT associates with the DEMETER (DME) DNA demethylase, facilitating DNA demethylation at over half of DME’s targets, specifically those which reside in heterochromatin. These results provide insight into upstream events in the DNA demethylation pathway and reveal the importance of chromatin remodeling for DNA demethylation during <I>Arabidopsis</I> reproduction.</P></▼1><▼2><P>The DEMETER (DME) DNA glycosylase catalyzes genome-wide DNA demethylation and is required for endosperm genomic imprinting and embryo viability. Targets of DME-mediated DNA demethylation reside in small, euchromatic, AT-rich transposons and at the boundaries of large transposons, but how DME interacts with these diverse chromatin states is unknown. The STRUCTURE SPECIFIC RECOGNITION PROTEIN 1 (SSRP1) subunit of the chromatin remodeler FACT (facilitates chromatin transactions), was previously shown to be involved in the DME-dependent regulation of genomic imprinting in <I>Arabidopsis</I> endosperm. Therefore, to investigate the interaction between DME and chromatin, we focused on the activity of the two FACT subunits, SSRP1 and SUPPRESSOR of TY16 (SPT16), during reproduction in <I>Arabidopsis</I>. We found that FACT colocalizes with nuclear DME in vivo, and that DME has two classes of target sites, the first being euchromatic and accessible to DME, but the second, representing over half of DME targets, requiring the action of FACT for DME-mediated DNA demethylation genome-wide. Our results show that the FACT-dependent DME targets are GC-rich heterochromatin domains with high nucleosome occupancy enriched with H3K9me2 and H3K27me1. Further, we demonstrate that heterochromatin-associated linker histone H1 specifically mediates the requirement for FACT at a subset of DME-target loci. Overall, our results demonstrate that FACT is required for DME targeting by facilitating its access to heterochromatin.</P></▼2>

<P>We have searched for proton decay via p -> e(+) pi(0) and p -> mu(+) pi(0) using Super-Kamiokande data from April 1996 to March 2015, 0.306 megaton center dot years exposure in total. The atmospheric neutrino background rate in Super-Kamiokande IV is reduced to almost half that of phase I-III by tagging neutrons associated with neutrino interactions. The reach of the proton lifetime is further enhanced by introducing new signal criteria that select the decay of a proton in a hydrogen atom. No candidates were seen in the p -> e(+) pi(0) search. Two candidates that passed all of the selection criteria for p -> mu(+) pi(0) have been observed, but these are consistent with the expected number of background events of 0.87. Lower limits on the proton lifetime are set at tau/B(p -> mu(+) pi(0)) > 1.6 x 10(34) years and tau/B(p -> mu(+) pi(0) ) > 7.7 x 10(33) years at 90% confidence level.</P>

<P>We present a real-time supernova neutrino burst monitor at Super-Kamiokande (SIC). Detecting supernova explosions by neutrinos in real time is crucial for giving a clear picture of the explosion mechanism. Since the neutrinos are expected to come earlier than light, a fast broadcasting of the detection may give astronomers a chance to make electromagnetic radiation observations of the explosions right at the onset. The role of the monitor includes a fast announcement of the neutrino burst detection to the world and a determination of the supernova direction. We present the online neutrino burst detection system and studies of the direction determination accuracy based on simulations at SK. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.</P>
