Histone affinity chromatography as a tool for fractionating nonhistone chromatin proteins and studying histone-nonhistone protein interactions.
The interaction between histone and nonhistone chromatin proteins has been investigated by histone affinity chromatography, a technique that avoids precipitation of histone l nonhistone complexes. When nonhistone proteins labeled with 32P are loaded directly on histone-Sepharose columns, no binding of radioactivity to the column is observed. However, if labeled nonhistone proteins are mixed wit...
متن کاملHistone-histone interactions and centromere function.
Cse4p is a structural component of the core centromere of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and is a member of the conserved CENP-A family of specialized histone H3 variants. The histone H4 allele hhf1-20 confers defects in core centromere chromatin structure and mitotic chromosome transmission. We have proposed that Cse4p and histone H4 interact through their respective histone fold domains to assemble...
متن کاملChemical approaches for studying histone modifications.
Histones form the protein core around which genomic DNA is wrapped in eukaryotic chromatin. Numerous genetic studies have established that the structure and transcriptional state of chromatin are closely related to histone post-translational modifications. Further elucidation of the precise mechanistic roles for individual histone modifications requires the ability to isolate and study homogene...
متن کاملA novel approach for studying histone H1 function in vivo.
In this report, we investigate the mechanisms that regulate Drosophila histone H1 expression and its association with chromatin in vivo. We show that histone H1 is subject to negative autoregulation and exploit this result to examine the effects of mutations of the main phosphorylation site of histone H1.
متن کاملQuantitative Proteomic Approaches to Studying Histone Modifications
Histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) positively and negatively regulate gene expression, and are consequently a vital influence on the genomic profile of all eukaryotic species. The study of histone PTMs using classical methods in molecular biology, such as immunofluorescence and Western blotting, is challenging given the technical issues of the approaches, and chemical diversity and...
