Özet

© 2021 Elsevier LtdConsiderable progress has been made recently in defining the interactions of linker histones (H1s) within nucleosomes. Major advancements include atomic resolution structures of the globular domain of full-length H1s in the context of nucleosomes containing full-length linker DNA. Although these studies have led to a detailed understanding of the interactions and dynamics of H1 globular domains in the canonical on-dyad nucleosome binding pocket, more information regarding the intrinsically disordered N-terminal and C-terminal domains is needed. In this review, we highlight studies supporting our current understanding of the structures and interactions of the N-terminal, globular, and C-terminal domains of linker histones within the nucleosome.
