Abstract
The interactions of H1 (H1A, H1B), H2A, H2B, H3, H4, and H5 with phenyl cross-linked agarose were studied. Procedures are described whereby all six histones can be bound, released, and fractionated by using appropriate salt concentrations or pH. The binding can be totally abolished by inclusion of hydrophobic disrupting agents. Control experiments with nonderivated cross-linked agarose ruled out a passive aggregation–disaggregation phenomenon governing the binding patterns. The absorption sequence based on the identification and quantitation of individual histones from either unfractionated (whole) histone or separate histone classes is as follows: [Formula: see text]. The order differs only slightly from the reverse of the desorption sequence, [Formula: see text]. Preferential interaction of H2A–H2B, H3–H4, and H2A–H2B–H4 occur; these interactions can modify the original relative affinity of each individual component for the matrix. The variability in matrix affinity appears to involve simple stoichiometry of the histone components.
