Abstract excerpt
The post-translational modifications of histones are key to the modulation of chromatin structure. Distinct patterns of modifications established by histone-modifying enzymes control diverse chromosomal processes. Here, we report the purification and molecular characterization of the fission yeast Clr6 histone deacetyl ase involved in higher order chromatin assembly. We show that a chromodomain protein Alp13,...
