The nucleosome core particle (NCP) is the basic building block of chromatin.
Nucleosome-nucleosome interactions are instrumental in chromatin compaction, and
understanding NCP self-assembly is important for understanding chromatin
structure and dynamics. Recombinant NCPs aggregated by multivalent cations form
various ordered phases that can be studied by x-ray diffraction (small-angle
x-ray scattering). In this work, the effects on the supramolecular structure of
aggregated NCPs due to lysine histone H4 tail acetylations, histone H2A mutations
(neutralizing the acidic patch of the histone octamer), and the removal of
histone tails were investigated. The formation of ordered mainly hexagonal
columnar NCP phases is in agreement with earlier studies; however, the highly
homogeneous recombinant NCP systems used in this work display a more compact
packing. The long-range order of the NCP columnar phase was found to be abolished
or reduced by acetylation of the H4 tails, acidic patch neutralization, and
removal of the H3 and H2B tails. Loss of nucleosome stacking upon removal of the
H3 tails in combination with other tails was observed. In the absence of the H2A
tails, the formation of an unknown highly ordered phase was observed.
