BINDING OF THE ANTITUMOR DRUG ADRIAMYCIN TO DNA-HISTONE COMPLEXES
Isotherms of the binding of the anthracycIine antibiotic, adriamycin (adriblastin), to DNA histone complexes was studied by means of spectroscopic analysis. The results indicated that: (a) binding of adriamycin to histones reduced the interaction of histones with DNA, (b) binding of the drug to DNA did not change the binding affinity of histone to DNA and, (c) in the explored binding range...

متن کاملPreferential interaction of the core histone tail domains with linker DNA.
Within chromatin, the core histone tail domains play critical roles in regulating the structure and accessibility of nucleosomal DNA within the chromatin fiber. Thus, many nuclear processes are facilitated by concomitant posttranslational modification of these domains. However, elucidation of the mechanisms by which the tails mediate such processes awaits definition of tail interactions within ...
متن کاملDNA methylation affects nuclear organization, histone modifications, and linker histone binding but not chromatin compaction
DNA methylation has been implicated in chromatin condensation and nuclear organization, especially at sites of constitutive heterochromatin. How this is mediated has not been clear. In this study, using mutant mouse embryonic stem cells completely lacking in DNA methylation, we show that DNA methylation affects nuclear organization and nucleosome structure but not chromatin compaction. In the a...
متن کاملLinker Histone / DNA Interactions : In Vitro Studies
approved: Jordanka Zlatanova By studying the linker histone/DNA complex in vitro, our goal was to gain further insight into the interaction of these histones in chromatin structure, which, in turn, helps us in better understanding critical biological processes such as replication, transcription, and recombination. In direct competition experiments, we have confirmed previous results of the pref...
