Binding of phosphorylated histone H1 to DNA.
A chromatin associated protein kinase was used to add 3 moles of phosphate to seryl side chains of 1 mole of histone H1. The DNA binding properties of this in vitro phosphorylated H1 were compared with those of unmodified H1. Considerably more radioactive superhelical DNA was retained on nitrocellulose filters at 20mM-40mM NaCl by phosphorylated H1 than by unmodified H1. However, zone velocity ...
متن کاملHistone H1 Limits DNA Methylation in Neurospora crassa
Histone H1 variants, known as linker histones, are essential chromatin components in higher eukaryotes, yet compared to the core histones relatively little is known about their in vivo functions. The filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa encodes a single H1 protein that is not essential for viability. To investigate the role of N. crassa H1, we constructed a functional FLAG-tagged H1 fusion prot...
متن کاملSpecific interaction of histone H1 with eukaryotic DNA.
The interaction of calf thymus histone H1 with homologous and heterologous DNA has been studied at different ionic strengths. It has been found that about 0.5 M NaCl histone H1, and its fragments N-H1 (residues 1-72) and C-H1 (residues 73-C terminal), precipitate selectively a small fraction of calf thymus DNA. This selective precipitation is preserved up to very high values (less than 2.0) of ...
متن کاملGene Regulation by Histone H1: New Links to DNA Methylation
Linker histones of the H1 family are among the most abundant components of chromatin. In this issue of Cell, the effect of H1 downregulation on gene expression is examined. Although a 50% reduction of histone H1 levels in embryonic stem cells affects chromatin structure globally, the expression of very few genes is altered. Intriguingly, this study reveals a new link between H1 and DNA methylat...
متن کاملHigh-affinity binding sites for histone H1 in plasmid DNA.
The interaction of histone H1 isolated from chicken erythrocytes with restriction fragments from plasmids pBR322 and pUC19 was studied by gel electrophoresis. Certain restriction fragments exhibited unusually high affinity for the histone, forming high molecular mass complexes at protein to DNA ratios at which the other fragments did not show evidence for binding. The highly preferred fragments...
