Role of Histone Tails in Structural Stability of the Nucleosome
Figure 8
Interactions with Arg81 of H2A(2) during the intact and H3 tail-truncated simulations.
(A) Number of H-bonds between Arg81 and selected surrounding residues from intact and H3 tail-truncated simulations. The selected surrounding residues are shown in (B) and (C). (B) Arg81 H-bonds with Gln55 and Lys56 of H3(1) and Gly105 and Val107 of H2A(2) during the intact nucleosome simulation. (C) Arg81 H-bonds with DNA in the H3 tail-truncated simulation.
