    Abstract The high-resolution structure of a nucleosome core particle gives us our first detailed look at the primary level of eukaryotic DNA organization. The structure reveals the nature of histone-DNA contacts and provides some surprises regarding the histone tails and their possible involvement in higher levels of chromatin organization.

  3. Article: Effects of acetylation of histone H4 at lysines 8 and 16 on activity of the Hat1 histone acetyltransferase.

    Abstract During nucleosome assembly in vivo, newly synthesized histone H4 is specifically diacetylated on lysines 5 and 12 within the H4 NH(2)-terminal tail domain. The highly conserved "K5/K12" deposition pattern of acetylation is thought to be generated by the Hat1 histone acetyltransferase, which in vivo is found in the HAT-B complex. In the following report, the activity and substrate specificity of the human HAT-B complex and of recombinant yeast Hat1p have been examined, using synthetic H4 NH(2)-terminal peptides as substrates. As expected, the unacetylated H4 peptide was a good substrate for acetylation by yeast Hat1p and human HAT-B, while the K5/K12-diacetylated peptide was not significantly acetylated. Notably, an H4 peptide previously diacetylated on lysines 8 and 16 was a very poor substrate for acetylation by either yeast Hat1p or human HAT-B. Treating the K8/K16-diacetylated peptide with histone deacetylase prior to the HAT-B reaction raised acetylation at K5/K12 to 70-80% of control levels. These results present strong support for the model of H4-Hat1p interaction proposed by Dutnall et al. (Dutnall, R. N., Tafrov, S. T., Sternglanz, R., and Ramakrishnan, V. (1998) Cell 94, 427-438) and provide evidence for the first time that site-specific acetylation of histones can regulate the acetylation of other substrate sites.

    Abstract Background: The 2Cys-2His (C2-H2) zinc finger is a protein domain commonly used for sequence-specific DNA recognition. The zinc fingers of the yeast transcription factors SWI5 and ACE2 share strong sequence homology, which extends into a region N-terminal to the first finger, suggesting that the DNA-binding domains of these two proteins include additional structural elements.
    Results: Structural analysis of the zinc fingers of SWI5 reveals that a 15 residue region N-terminal to the finger motifs forms part of the structure of the first finger domain, adding a beta strand and a helix not previously observed in other zinc finger structures. Sequence analysis suggests that other zinc finger proteins may also have this structure. Biochemical studies show that this additional structure increases DNA-binding affinity.
    Conclusions: The structural analysis presented reveals a novel zinc finger structure in which additional structural elements have been added to the C2-H2 zinc finger fold. This additional structure may enhance stability and has implications for DNA recognition by extending the potential DNA-binding surface of a single zinc finger domain.

    Abstract We have solved the crystal structure of the yeast histone acetyltransferase Hat1-acetyl coenzyme A (AcCoA) complex at 2.3 A resolution. Hat1 has an elongated, curved structure, and the AcCoA molecule is bound in a cleft on the concave surface of the protein, marking the active site of the enzyme. A channel of variable width and depth that runs across the protein is probably the binding site for the histone substrate. A model for histone H4 binding by Hat1 is discussed in terms of possible sources of specific lysine recognition by the enzyme. The structure of Hat1 provides a model for the structures of the catalytic domains of a protein superfamily that includes other histone acetyltransferases such as Gcn5 and CBP.

    Abstract We report the crystal structure of the yeast protein Hpa2 in complex with acetyl coenzyme A (AcCoA) at 2.4 A resolution and without cofactor at 2.9 A resolution. Hpa2 is a member of the Gcn5-related N-acetyltransferase (GNAT) superfamily, a family of enzymes with diverse substrates including histones, other proteins, arylalkylamines and aminoglycosides. In vitro, Hpa2 is able to acetylate specific lysine residues of histones H3 and H4 with a preference for Lys14 of histone H3. Hpa2 forms a stable dimer in solution and forms a tetramer upon binding AcCoA. The crystal structure reveals that the Hpa2 tetramer is stabilized by base-pair interactions between the adenine moieties of the bound AcCoA molecules. These base-pairs represent a novel method of stabilizing an oligomeric protein structure. Comparison of the structure of Hpa2 with those of other GNAT superfamily members illustrates a remarkably conserved fold of the catalytic domain of the GNAT family even though members of this family share low levels of sequence homology. This comparison has allowed us to better define the borders of the four sequence motifs that characterize the GNAT family, including a motif that is not discernable in histone acetyltransferases by sequence comparison alone. We discuss implications of the Hpa2 structure for the catalytic mechanism of the GNAT enzymes and the opportunity for multiple histone tail modification created by the tetrameric Hpa2 structure.
