Abstract excerpt
Histone H2A ubiquitination is a bulky posttranslational modification that occurs at the vicinity of the binding site for linker histones in the nucleosome. Therefore, we took several experimental approaches to investigate the role of ubiquitinated H2A (uH2A) in the binding of linker histones. Our results showed that uH2A was present in situ in histone H1-containing nucleosomes. Notably in vitro experiments using...
