Mild micrococcal nuclease treatment of rat and mouse nuclei and fractionation were based on the method of Tata and Baker. Three chromatin fractions, S, P1, P2, were separated, and for each of these fractions the sensitivity to the DNase 1 action was determined. The relative content in these fractions of non-transcribed DNA sequences was established by hydridization with a mouse satellite DNA, and the relative content of transcribed DNA sequences--by hydridization with DNA synthesised on the total poly (A) mRNA. None of the fractions displayed the properties characteristic of active chromatin. 相似文献

UV laser irradiation has been used to covalently crosslink histones to DNA in nuclei, chromatin and core particles and the presence of the different histone species in the covalently linked material was detected immunochemically. When nuclei were irradiated and then trypsinized to cleave the N- and C- terminal histone tails, no histones have been found covalently linked to DNA. This finding shows that UV laser-induced crosslinking of histones to DNA is accomplished via the non-structured domains only. This unexpected way of crosslinking operated in chromatin, H1-depleted chromatin and core particles, i.e. independently of the chromatin structure. The efficiency of crosslinking, however, showed such a dependence: whilst the yield of crosslinks was similar in total and H1-depleted chromatin, in core particles the efficiency was 3-4 times lower for H2A, H2B and H4 and 10-12 times lower for H3. The decreased crosslinking efficiency, especially dramatic in the case of H3, is attributed to a reduced number of binding sites, and, respectively, is considered as a direct evidence for interaction of nonstructured tails of core histones with linker DNA. 相似文献

The presence of histones on the enhancer-promoter region of the X.laevis ribosomal spacer has been studied in embryos at stage 40, where the ribosomal genes are actively transcribed. Isolated tadpole nuclei were either fixed with formaldehyde or irradiated with UV laser to crosslink histones to DNA. The purified protein-DNA complexes were immunoprecipitated with antibodies to the histones H1, H2A and H4 and the DNA fragments carrying the respective histones were analyzed for the presence of spacer enhancer-promoter sequences by hybridization to specific DNA probe. The two independent crosslinking procedures revealed the presence of these DNA sequences in the precipitated DNA. The quantitative analysis of the UV laser-crosslinked complexes showed that histones H2A and H4 were associated with enhancer-promoter DNA in amounts similar to those found for bulk DNA, whilst the content of H1 was reduced. 相似文献

The denaturation of mouse satellite DNA upon melting of chromatin in solution of low ionic strength has been studied. A procedure for preparation of partially denaturated chromatin was developed which enabled the isolation of double-stranded (non-denatured) DNA sequences according to their thermal stability in chromatin. The content of mouse satellite DNA in these DNA sequences was determined by hybridization with RNA, complementary to satellite DNA in order to find the temperature interval of denaturation of satellite DNA. It was found that the melting temperature of satellite DNA in chromatin was lower than that of the total DNA. The results are discussed in relation to previously reported anomalous behaviour of satellite DNA upon melting of chromatin on hydroxyapatite. 相似文献

Mouse DNA and chromatin were melted on hydroxyapatite and the denaturation profiles of ribosomal and satellite DNAs were followed by hybridization with their complementary RNAs. Neither ribosomal nor bulk DNA had significantly different melting profiles in chromatin as compared to DNA. However, most of satellite DNA eluted at higher temperature from chromatin than from purified DNA. One explanation for the higher melting temperature of mouse satellite DNA in chromatin suggests that the complex between this particular DNA component and at least some proteins in chromatin is more stable than the average DNA-protein interaction. 相似文献

The work was focused on the investigation of possible dependencies between the development of viral infection in plants and the presence of high heavy metal concentrations in soil. Field experiments have been conducted in order to study the development of systemic tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) infection in Lycopersicon esculentum L. cv. Miliana plants under effect of separate salts of heavy metals Cu, Zn and Pb deposited in soil. As it is shown, simultaneous effect of viral infection and heavy metals in tenfold maximum permissible concentration leads to decrease of total chlorophyll content in experiment plants mainly due to the degradation of chlorophyll a. The reduction of chlorophyll concentration under the combined influence of both stress factors was more serious comparing to the separate effect of every single factor. Plants' treatment with toxic concentrations of lead and zinc leaded to slight delay in the development of systemic TMV infection together with more than twofold increase of virus content in plants that may be an evidence of synergism between these heavy metal's and virus' effects. Contrary, copper although decreased total chlorophyll content but showed protective properties and significantly reduced amount of virus in plants. 相似文献

The high mobility group box (HMGB) 1 protein, one of the most abundant nuclear non-histone proteins has been known for its inhibitory effect on repair of DNA damaged by the antitumor drug cisplatin. Here, we report the first results that link HMGB1 to repair of cisplatin-treated DNA at nucleosome level. Experiments were carried out with three types of reconstituted nucleosomes strongly positioned on the damaged DNA: linker DNA containing nucleosomes (centrally and end-positioned) and core particles. The highest repair synthesis was registered with end-positioned nucleosomes, two and three times more efficient than that with centrally positioned nucleosomes and core particles, respectively. HMGB1 inhibited repair of linker DNA containing nucleosomes more efficiently than that of core particles. Just the opposite was the effect of the in vivo acetylated HMGB1: stronger repair inhibition was obtained with core particles. No inhibition was observed with HMGB1 lacking the acidic tail. Binding of HMGB1 proteins to different nucleosomes was also analysed. HMGB1 bound preferentially to damage nucleosomes containing linker DNA, while the binding of the acetylated protein was linker independent. We show that both the repair of cisplatin-damaged nucleosomes and its inhibition by HMGB1 are nucleosome position-dependent events which are accomplished via the acidic tail and modulated by acetylation. 相似文献

The postsynthetic acetylation of HMG1 protein has been known for more than 20 years, but the effect of this modification on the properties of the protein has not been studied so far. Acetylated HMG1 was isolated from cells grown in the presence of sodium n-butyrate and identified as a monoacetylated protein, modified at lysine 2. Acetylated and parental forms of HMG1 were compared relative to their binding affinity to distorted DNA structures. By using mobility shift assay to determine the dissociation constants, we show that acetylation enhanced the ability of HMG1 to recognize UV light- or cisplatin-damaged DNA and four-way junctions. Since the modified lysine lies adjacent to the HMG1 DNA-binding domain, the results obtained were attributed to acetylation-induced conformational change in HMG1. The potential role of acetylation in modulating the interactions of HMG1 with both damaged DNA and other proteins is discussed. 相似文献

A method is suggested for isolation of highly purified mouse centromeric heterochromatin. Treatment of mouse liver nuclei with decreasing concentrations of Ca2+ resulted in the gradual unraveling of chromatin in the nucleus and at 0.1 mM Ca2+ electron microscopy revealed several dense particles per nucleus, surrounded by decondensed chromatin. These particles, assumed to represent centromere regions of interphase chromosomes by in situ hybridization with radioactive mouse satellite DNA and by differential staining for centromere heterochromatin, were isolated in preparative amounts and their DNA and protein composition was analyzed. The preparation represented practically pure mouse centromere heterochromatin, since more than 90% of its DNA was satellite DNA. 相似文献
