Function

H2A6_ARATH Core component of nucleosome. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called histone code, and nucleosome remodeling. Required for the T-DNA integration step of plant transformation by Agrobacterium. May play an important role in illegitimate recombination.[1] [2]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Nucleosome Assembly Protein 1 (NAP1) family proteins are evolutionarily conserved histone chaperones that play important roles in diverse biological processes. In this study, we determined the crystal structure of Arabidopsis NAP1-Related Protein 1 (NRP1) complexed with H2A-H2B and uncovered a previously unknown interaction mechanism in histone chaperoning. Both in vitro binding and in vivo plant rescue assays proved that interaction mediated by the N-terminal alpha-helix (alphaN) domain is essential for NRP1 function. In addition, the C-terminal acidic domain (CTAD) of NRP1 binds to H2A-H2B through a conserved mode similar to other histone chaperones. We further extended previous knowledge of the NAP1-conserved earmuff domain by mapping the amino acids of NRP1 involved in association with H2A-H2B. Finally, we showed that H2A-H2B interactions mediated by alphaN, earmuff, and CTAD domains are all required for the effective chaperone activity of NRP1. Collectively, our results reveal multiple interaction modes of a NAP1 family histone chaperone and shed light on how histone chaperones shield H2A-H2B from nonspecific interaction with DNA.
