Comparing the Assembly and Handedness Dynamics of (H3.3-H4)2 Tetrasomes to Canonical Tetrasomes. by Rifka Vlijm, Mina Lee, Orkide Ordu, Anastasiya Boltengagen, Alexandra Lusser, Nynke H Dekker, Cees Dekker

“…We also examine the effect of free NAP1, H3.3, and H4 in solution on flipping behavior and conclude that the probability for a tetrasome to occupy the left-handed state is only slightly enhanced by the presence of free protein. These data demonstrate that the incorporation of H3.3 does not alter the structural dynamics of tetrasomes, and hence that the preferred incorporation of this histone variant in transcriptionally active regions does not result from its enhanced ability to accommodate torsional stress, but rather may be linked to specific chaperone or remodeler requirements or communication with the nuclear environment.…”
