A novel approach for studying histone H1 function in vivo.
نویسندگان
چکیده
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.

The Unexpected Effect of Sodium Arsenate on the Interaction between Histone H1 and Sodium N-Dodecyl Sulphate
A Study was made on the interaction between histon H1 and sodium n-dodecyl sulphate (SDS) in the presence of sodium arsenate inside a phosphate buffer of pH 6.4, using spectroscopy and equilibrium dialysis at 27 °C. The binding data has been used to obtain the gibbs free energy in terms of a theoretical model based on the Wyman binding potential. The binding data hs been analysed...
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 کاملThe C-terminal domain is the primary determinant of histone H1 binding to chromatin in vivo.
We have used a combination of kinetic measurements and targeted mutations to show that the C-terminal domain is required for high-affinity binding of histone H1 to chromatin, and phosphorylations can disrupt binding by affecting the secondary structure of the C terminus. By measuring the fluorescence recovery after photo-bleaching profiles of green fluorescent protein-histone H1 proteins in liv...
متن کاملHistone H2A C-Terminus Regulates Chromatin Dynamics, Remodeling, and Histone H1 Binding
The tails of histone proteins are central players for all chromatin-mediated processes. Whereas the N-terminal histone tails have been studied extensively, little is known about the function of the H2A C-terminus. Here, we show that the H2A C-terminal tail plays a pivotal role in regulating chromatin structure and dynamics. We find that cells expressing C-terminally truncated H2A show increased...
متن کاملInteraction Studies of Sodium N-Dodecyl Sulphate and Protons to Nistone H1
The relationship between the binding of sodium n-dodecyl sulphate and protons to histone H1 has been investigated by equilibrium dialysis and titrimetry. The data cover the pH range 3.2-10 and surfactant concentrations up to 3.0×10-3 mol dm-3. A theoretical approach based on the binding potential concept of Wyman is presented and has been used to make estima...
