Influence of linker histone H1 on chromatin remodeling.
Chromatin-remodeling complexes have been a central area of focus for research dealing with accessing cellular DNA sequestered in chromatin. Although the linker histone H1 plays a major role in promoting and maintaining higher-order chromatin structure, it has been noticeably absent from assays utilizing chromatin-remodeling enzymes. This review focuses on two ATP-dependent chromatin-remodeling complexes, Drosophila ISWI and mammalian SWI/SNF, that have been assayed using chromatin templates containing histone H1.
