Nucleotide sequence and expression of a maize H1 histone cDNA.
The first complete amino acid sequence of a H1 histone of a monocotyledonous plant was deduced from a cDNA isolated from a maize library. The encoded H1 protein is 245 amino acid-long and shows the classical tripartite organization of this class of histones. The central globular region of 76 residues shows 60% sequence homology with H1 proteins from dicots but only 20% with the animal H1 protei...
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 کاملCommon phylogenetic origin of protamine-like (PL) proteins and histone H1: Evidence from bivalve PL genes.
Sperm nuclear basic proteins (SNBPs) can be grouped into three main categories: histone (H) type, protamine (P) type, and protamine-like (PL) type. Protamine-like SNBPs represent the most structurally heterogeneous group, consisting of basic proteins which are rich in both lysine and arginine amino acids. The PL proteins replace most of the histones during spermiogenesis but to a lesser extent ...
