Histone H1 gets Pin’d onto chromatin
Histone H1 gets Pin'd onto chromatin T he proline isomerase Pin1 limits chromosome decon-densation by stabilizing a histone's association with chromatin, Raghuram et al. reveal. Histone H1 incorporates into nucleosomes to enhance chromatin folding and condensation. Phosphory-lation by the cyclin-dependent kinase Cdk2 promotes H1's dissociation from chromatin, perhaps by altering the conformatio...
متن کاملAsynchronous appearance of newly synthesized histone H1 subfractions in HeLa chromatin
Incorporation of radioactive alanine into chromatin-bound subfractions of H1 histone was studied in HeLa cells synchronized by the double thymidine block technique. The subfractions were resolved into three chromatographic peaks by Biorex-70. In the period 5-7 h after release from the thymidine block, peaks I and III showed twice as much incorporation as they did in the period 1-3 h after relea...
متن کاملDistribution of the H1 histone subfractions in Syrian hamster chromatin fractions.
Chromatin from two Syrian hamster tissues: the Kirkman-Robbins hepatoma and the liver, has been separated into soluble (S) and insoluble (P) fractions. Both fractions contain the complete set of five main histones but differ in respect of H1 subfractions. The hepatoma chromatin is known to contain an unusual H1 subfraction, H1 slow [12, 13], probably identical with a similar subfraction present...
متن کاملProthymosin alpha modulates the interaction of histone H1 with chromatin
Prothymosin alpha (ProTalpha) is an abundant acidic nuclear protein that may be involved in cell proliferation. In our search for its cellular partners, we have recently found that ProTalpha binds to linker histone H1. We now provide further evidence for the physiological relevance of this interaction by immunoisolation of a histone H1-ProTalpha complex from NIH 3T3 cell extracts. A detailed an...
متن کاملHistone H1 compacts DNA under force and during chromatin assembly
Histone H1 binds to linker DNA between nucleosomes, but the dynamics and biological ramifications of this interaction remain poorly understood. We performed single-molecule experiments using magnetic tweezers to determine the effects of H1 on naked DNA in buffer or during chromatin assembly in Xenopus egg extracts. In buffer, nanomolar concentrations of H1 induce bending and looping of naked DN...
