To better understand the basis for heat shock-induced chromatin condensation in Achlya, a further characterization of the histones of this organism was carried out. The nucleosomal location (i.e., core vs linker), partial peptide map, and electrophoretic behavior of each Achlya histone was determined and compared to the well-characterized histones of rabbit kidney. The results of this and previous studies suggest that in Achlya, no nucleosome linker-associated histone analogous to histone H1 of higher eucaryotes is observed and that the Achlya histone designated alpha is a novel nucleosomal core histone. These observations may reflect the existence of a mechanism of stress-induced chromatin condensation which does not involve histone H1. |
