Disruption of Reconstituted Nucleosomes
THE EFFECT OF PARTICLE CONCENTRATION, MgCl(2) AND KCl CONCENTRATION, THE HISTONE TAILS, AND TEMPERATURE

(Received for publication, August 28, 1995; and in revised form, September 22, 1995)

James S. Godde Alan P. Wolffe

We find that reconstituted nucleosome cores containing specific DNA sequences dissociate on dilution. This disruption of histone-DNA contacts leading to the release of free DNA is facilitated by the presence of the core histone tails, MgCl(2) (5 mM), KCl (60 mM), and temperatures above 0 °C. Under reaction conditions that are commonly used to assess trans-acting factor access to nucleosomal DNA, histone-DNA contacts are on the threshold of instability. We demonstrate how dilution of reconstituted nucleosomes containing a TATA box can facilitate TBP access to DNA.
