The aim of this study was to gain more information about the
interactions between DNA and the histone octamer during the
process of transcription. This work used a pUC8 plasmid derivative
that contained the core promoter region of the RNA polymerase I of
Acanthamoeba castellanii, placed upstream of four repeats...
Methods are presented to acquire data from analytical ultracentrifugation experiments
by computer using the absorption optical scanning system of the Beckman Model-E
ultracentrifuge. A computer program was written which analyzes sedimentation velocity
experiments by the van Holde - Weischet method and by the second moment method. The van
Holde -...
The aim of this research was to gain more understanding on how a linker histone (LH), H1⁰, and high mobility group protein, HMG1, interact with nucleosome. To determine the location of linker proteins, three specific positioning sequences were used to reconstitute core nucleosomes and the binding of H1 and HMG1...
