BINDING OF THE ANTITUMOR DRUG ADRIAMYCIN TO DNA-HISTONE COMPLEXES
Isotherms of the binding of the anthracycIine antibiotic, adriamycin (adriblastin), to DNA histone complexes was studied by means of spectroscopic analysis. The results indicated that: (a) binding of adriamycin to histones reduced the interaction of histones with DNA, (b) binding of the drug to DNA did not change the binding affinity of histone to DNA and, (c) in the explored binding range...
متن کاملRapid purification of HU protein from Halobacillus karajensis
The histone-like protein HU is the most-abundant DNA-binding protein in bacteria. The HU protein non-specifically binds and bends DNA as a hetero- or homodimer, and can participate in DNA supercoiling and DNA condensation. It also takes part in DNA functions such as replication, recombination, and repair. HU does not recognize any specific sequences but shows a certain degree of specificity to ...
متن کاملThe effect of aspirin on the interaction of histone 05 and 05-DNA
The linker histones (H1 or H5) which play a key role in the folding of chromatin, are general repressors of gene expression. Nuclei of the mature chicken erythrocytes (and in some mammalian cells) contain both of them. Although the interaction of H5 with DNA is stronger than that of H1, it does not prevent the transcription of some erythroid-specific genes. It has been shown that some modificat...
متن کاملPost-translational changes of histones, methylation level, and ERβ protein level in the cumulus cell genome of infertile women with endometriosis
Background: Endometriosis (which affects up to 50% of infertile women) is one of the major causes impacting female infertility. Endometriosis, defined as the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterine tissue, causes a wide range of functional disorders in the process of follicular development and changes in the follicular milieu, resulting in the formation of an incompetent o...
متن کاملArchaebacterial histone-like proteins. Purification and characterization of helix stabilizing DNA binding proteins from the acidothermophile Sulfolobus acidocaldarius.
Four DNA binding histone-like proteins have been purified from the nucleoid of the acidothermophilic archaebacterium Sulfolobus acidocaldarius to homogeneity employing DNA-cellulose chromatography and carboxymethylcellulose chromatography. The molecular weights of these proteins are in the range 8,000-12,500. Immunoblotting results suggest that a few antigenic determinants are common among thes...
