'''1.6A Crystal Structure of the Non-Histone Domain of the Histone Variant MacroH2A1.1.'''<br />
'''1.6A Crystal Structure of the Non-Histone Domain of the Histone Variant MacroH2A1.1.'''<br />


==Overview==
==Overview==
macroH2A is an H2A variant with a highly unusual structural organization., It has a C-terminal domain connected to the N-terminal histone domain by a, linker. Crystallographic and biochemical studies show that changes in the, L1 loop in the histone fold region of macroH2A impact the structure and, potentially the function of nucleosomes. The 1.6-A X-ray structure of the, nonhistone region reveals an alpha/beta fold which has previously been, found in a functionally diverse group of proteins. This region associates, with histone deacetylases and affects the acetylation status of, nucleosomes containing macroH2A. Thus, the unusual domain structure of, macroH2A integrates independent functions that are instrumental in, establishing a structurally and functionally unique chromatin domain.
