Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called histone code, and nucleosome remodeling. [H32_XENLA] Core component of nucleosome. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called histone code, and nucleosome remodeling. [H2A1_XENLA] Core component of nucleosome.

Publication Abstract from PubMed The conformation of DNA bound in nucleosomes depends on the DNA sequence. Questions such as how nucleosomes are positioned and how they potentially bind sequence-dependent nuclear factors require near-atomic resolution structures of the nucleosome core containing different DNA sequences; despite this, only the DNA for two similar alpha-satellite sequences and a sequence (601) selected in vitro have been visualized bound in the nucleosome core. Here we report the 2.6-A resolution X-ray structure of a nucleosome core particle containing the DNA sequence of nucleosome A of the 3'-LTR of the mouse mammary tumor virus (147 bp MMTV-A). To our knowledge, this is the first nucleosome core particle structure containing a promoter sequence and crystallized from Mg2+ ions. It reveals sequence-dependent DNA conformations not seen previously, including kinking into the DNA major groove.
