Stability of DNA in nucleosomes.
Heats of thermal denaturation of chromatin core particles and core particles with covalently crosslinked histones were measured by differential scanning calorimetry. The additional stabilization of the nucleoprotein complex by crosslinking is not reflected in the transition enthalpy. The contribution of protein denaturation to the total heat was estimated by comparison of core particles with co...
متن کاملNucleosomes and centromeric DNA packaging.
The eukaryotic chromosome is a conserved structure, with the DNA double-helix wrapping around octamers of histone proteins to form the chromatin, which is further packaged into chromosomes. The centromere defines the kinetochore, the region of spindle microtubule attachment that pulls the two replicated chromatids of each chromosome apart during cell division (Fig. 1), leading to fidelity in tr...
متن کاملTransferring DNA from electrophoretically resolved nucleosomes to diazobenzyloxymethyl cellulose: properties of nucleosomes along mouse satellite DNA.
Electrophoresis fractionates nucleosomes which possess different protein compositions. We report here a procedure for transferring the DNA components of electrophoretically resolved nucleosomes to diazobenzyloxymethyl cellulose (DBM-paper). Histones are first removed from nucleosome components by electrophoresis in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), leaving DNA fragments fix...
متن کاملNucleotide excision repair of DNA by human cell extracts is suppressed in reconstituted nucleosomes.
Nucleotide excision repair is a complex biochemical process that corrects DNA damage caused by a broad spectrum of physical and chemical agents. We examined the effect of the assembly of ultraviolet-irradiated plasmid DNA into nucleosomes on nucleotide excision repair supported by human cell extracts. Repair synthesis in unassembled UV-irradiated plasmid DNA was readily detected in extracts fro...
متن کاملConditions for positioning of nucleosomes on DNA.
Positioning of nucleosomes along a eukaryotic genome plays an important role in its organization and regulation. There are many different factors affecting the location of nucleosomes. Some can be viewed as preferential binding of a single nucleosome to different locations along the DNA and some as interactions between neighboring nucleosomes. In this study, we analyze positioning of nucleosome...
