Functional domains of chlamydial histone H1-like protein.
Chlamydial trachomatis is one of the few prokaryotic organisms known to contain proteins that bear amino acid similarity to eukaryotic histone H1. It is also appreciated that chlamydial histone-like proteins, designated Hc1 and Hc2, can bind DNA and are presumably involved in the condensation of infectious elementary bodies. However, there is no information on either the orientation of Hc1 and ...
متن کاملSequence specific binding of chlamydial histone H1-like protein.
Chlamydia trachomatis is one of the few prokaryotic organisms known to contain proteins that bear homology to eukaryotic histone H1. Changes in macromolecular conformation of DNA mediated by the histone H1-like protein (Hc1) appear to regulate stage specific differentiation. We have developed a cross-linking immunoprecipitation protocol to examine in vivo protein-DNA interaction by immune preci...
متن کاملFunctional equivalence of HMGA- and histone H1-like domains in a bacterial transcriptional factor.
Histone H1 and high-mobility group A (HMGA) proteins compete dynamically to modulate chromatin structure and regulate DNA transactions in eukaryotes. In prokaryotes, HMGA-like domains are known only in Myxococcus xanthus CarD and its Stigmatella aurantiaca ortholog. These have an N-terminal module absent in HMGA that interacts with CarG (a zinc-associated factor that does not bind DNA) to form ...
متن کاملSequence and characterization of a sperm-specific histone H1-like protein of Mytilus californianus.
The major protein fraction of the protamine-like PL-II* (phi 2B) from the sperm of Mytilus californianus has been sequenced and characterized. Immunological and sequence analyses unequivocally show that this protein is indeed a member of the histone H1 family. Along with proteins of the histone H1 class, the protein also shows cross-reactivity and sequence identity, in its NH2-terminal region, ...
متن کاملFunctional domains of histone deacetylase-3.
Post-translational modifications of histones, in general, and acetylation/deacetylation, in particular, can dramatically alter gene expression in eukaryotic cells. In humans, four highly homologous class I HDAC enzymes (HDAC1, HDAC2, HDAC3, and HDAC8) have been identified to date. Although HDAC3 shares some structural and functional similarities with other class I HDACs, it exists in multisubun...
