Unique yeast histone sequences influence octamer and nucleosome stability.
Yeast nucleosomes are known to be intrinsically less stable than those from higher eukaryotes. This difference presents significant challenges for the production of yeast nucleosome core particles (NCPs) and chromatin for in vitro analyses. Using recombinant yeast, human, and chimeric histone proteins, we demonstrate that three divergent amino acids in histone H3 (Q120 K121 K125 ) are responsib...
متن کاملCrystallographic structure of the octamer histone core of the nucleosome.
should be compared with figure 2a in (2).These maps are "before" and "after" solvent flattening respectively, and clearly demonstrate that our noise filtering procedure did not introduce artifacts into the map. 4) Klug et al., seem to have overlooked the information presented (2, p. 547) and concluded that we have incorrectly chosen the protein boundaries. On the contrary, 95 percent of the bou...
متن کاملIsolation of yeast histone genes H2A and H2B.
Analysis of cloned sequences for yeast histone genes H2A and H2B reveals that there are only two copies of this pair of genes within the haploid yeast genome. Within each copy, the genes for H2A and H2B are separated by approximately 700 bp of spacer DNA. The two copies are separated from one another in the yeast genome by a minimum distance of 35-60 kb. Sequence homology between the two copies...
متن کاملHigh-resolution structure of the native histone octamer.
Crystals of native histone octamers (H2A-H2B)-(H4-H3)-(H3'-H4')-(H2B'-H2A') from chick erythrocytes in 2 M KCl, 1.35 M potassium phosphate pH 6.9 diffract X-rays to 1.90 A resolution, yielding a structure with an R(work) value of 18.7% and an Rfree of 22.2%. The crystal space group is P6(5), the asymmetric unit of which contains one complete octamer. This high-resolution model of the histone-co...
متن کاملCrosslinked histone octamer as a model of the nucleosome core.
When histones in chromatin core particles were crosslinked with dimethylsuberimidate, the resulting particles had properties closely similar to those of native core particles. A crosslinked octameric histone complex was isolated from these particles under nondenaturing conditions. Upon reaction with DNA, this octameric protein folded the DNA into a structure closely resembling that of native co...
