Histone H2A C-Terminus Regulates Chromatin Dynamics, Remodeling, and Histone H1 Binding
The tails of histone proteins are central players for all chromatin-mediated processes. Whereas the N-terminal histone tails have been studied extensively, little is known about the function of the H2A C-terminus. Here, we show that the H2A C-terminal tail plays a pivotal role in regulating chromatin structure and dynamics. We find that cells expressing C-terminally truncated H2A show increased...
متن کاملReassociation of histone H1 to H1-depleted polynucleosomes.
A new procedure is described for the reassociation of histone H1 to rat liver polynucleosomes selectively depleted of H1 and nonhistone proteins. The fidelity of reconstitution was scrutinized by nuclease digestion and sedimentation studies monitoring the regeneration of structural features which disappear following removal of H1. The results demonstrate that the 166-base pair barrier of digest...
متن کاملBinding 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 کاملCondensation of polynucleosome by histone H1 binding.
The cooperative binding of histone H1 to polynucleosome was studied quantitatively. The equilibrium and kinetic data were satisfactorily described in terms of the large ligand model. The binding constant K and the cooperativity parameter q showed remarkable salt effects: K = 7.5 X 10(7) M-1 and q = 1.3 X 10(4) at 0.2 M NaCl, pH 7.5 and 20 degrees C. This considerably strong cooperativity reveal...
متن کاملHistone H1 binding is inhibited by histone variant H3.3.
Linker histones are involved in the formation of higher-order chromatin structure and the regulation of specific genes, yet it remains unclear what their principal binding determinants are. We generated a genome-wide high-resolution binding map for linker histone H1 in Drosophila cells, using DamID. H1 binds at similar levels across much of the genome, both in classic euchromatin and heterochro...
