Persistence of the ten-nucleotide repeat in chromatin unfolded in urea, as revealed by digestion with deoxyribonuclease i.

چکیده
It is shown by enzymatic digestion of chromatin from rat liver or Guerin ascites tumour (GAT) that treatments, which abolish the 180 base pair repeat, as revealed by digestion with micrococcal nuclease (shearing in salt solutions of medium ionic strength, sonication, fixation with formaldehyde in the presence of 5 M urea), have little effect on the 10 nucleotide repeat, observed in deoxyribonuclease I digests.

Different repeat lengths in rat satellite I DNA containing chromatin and bulk chromatin.
The nucleosome repeat structure of a rat liver chromatin component containing the satellite I DNA (repeat length 370 bp) was investigated. Digestion experiments with micrococcal nuclease, DNAase II, and the Ca2+/Mg2+-dependent endogenous nuclease of rat liver nuclei revealed a repeat unit of 185 nucleotide pairs which is shorter by approximately 10 bp than the repeat unit of the bulk chromatin ...
متن کاملA structure of potentially active and inactive genes of chicken erythrocyte chromatin upon decondensation.
In the presence of 3 mM MgCl2 DNase I cleavage of bulk, globin and ovalbumin gene chromatin in chicken erythrocyte nuclei generates fragments which are multiples of a double-nucleosome repeat. However, in addition to the dinucleosomal periodicity beta-globin gene chromatin was fragmented into multiples of a 100 b.p. interval which is characteristic for partially unfolded chromatin. This distinc...
متن کاملDigestion of insect chromatin with micrococcal nuclease, DNase I and DNase I combined with single-strand specific nuclease S1.
The chromatin of the lepidopteran Ephestia kuehniella was digested by micrococcal nuclease, DNase I and S1-nuclease combined with DNase I pretreatment. The resulting DNA fragments were analyzed by gel electrophoresis and compared with the DNA fragments of rat liver nuclei obtained by the same process. Extensive homology was revealed between insect and mammalian chromatin structure. The combined...
متن کاملLocalization of the Sites Along Nucleosome DNA Which Interact with NH,-terminal Histone Regions*
Trypsin digestion of HeLa nucleosomes produces the same series of discrete histone breakdown products observed previously by others during digestion of chromatin; thus, trypsin excises the NH,-terminal ends of the histones from the chromatin core particle. The resulting nucleoprotein complex sediments at 9 S, has an increased molecular ellipticity at 280 nm, and has DNase I-susceptible sites at...
متن کاملEnzymatic Digestion Pattern of Varicella Zoster Virus ORF38 and ORF54 in Chickenpox Patients Using RFLP Technique
Background: Varicella zoster virus (VZV) causes chickenpox in children and zoster (zona) in the elderly. Using RFLP-PCR method for detection of VZV specific SNPs ORF38, 54 and 62 could distinguish the profile of VZV isolates. The aim of this study was to investigate enzymatic digestion pattern of VZV ORF38 and ORF54 in chickenpox patients using RFLP technique. <b...
