Specific interaction of histone H1 with eukaryotic DNA.
The interaction of calf thymus histone H1 with homologous and heterologous DNA has been studied at different ionic strengths. It has been found that about 0.5 M NaCl histone H1, and its fragments N-H1 (residues 1-72) and C-H1 (residues 73-C terminal), precipitate selectively a small fraction of calf thymus DNA. This selective precipitation is preserved up to very high values (less than 2.0) of ...
متن کاملEukaryotic DNA topoisomerase I reaction is topology dependent.
The effects of supercoiling on the topoisomerization reaction by eukaryotic DNA topoisomerases I have been analyzed. The systems used were: DNA topoisomerase I from wheat germ, chicken erythrocyte and calf thymus on a 2.3 kb DNA fragment which encompasses the immunoglobulin kappa-light chain (L kappa) promoter of the mouse plasmacytoma MPC11; S. cerevisiae DNA topoisomerase I on a 2.2 kb DNA fr...
متن کاملEukaryotic topoisomerase I-DNA interaction is stabilized by helix curvature.
The influence of DNA structure on topoisomerase I-DNA interaction has been investigated using a high affinity binding site and mutant derivatives thereof. Parallel determinations of complex formation and helix structure in the absence of superhelical stress suggest that the interaction is intensified by stable helix curvature. Previous work showed that a topoisomerase I binding site consists of...
متن کاملEscherichia coli DNA topoisomerase I copurifies with Tn5 transposase, and Tn5 transposase inhibits topoisomerase I.
Tn5 transposase (Tnp) overproduction is lethal to Escherichia coli. Genetic evidence suggested that this killing involves titration of E. coli topoisomerase I (Topo I). Here, we present biochemical evidence that supports this model. Tn5 Tnp copurifies with Topo I while nonkilling derivatives of Tnp, Delta37Tnp and Delta55Tnp (Inhibitor [Inh]), show reduced affinity or no affinity, respectively,...
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 ...
