RhIP (Reconstituted histone complex Incorporation into chromatin of Permeabilized cells) assay recapitulates the replication-coupled H3.1-H4 and -dependent H3.3-H4 depositions.

(A) Schematic representation of the RhIP assay, using reconstituted H3.1-H4 and H3.3-H4 complexes. Permeabilized cells were prepared from HeLa cells treated with non-ionic detergent, to perforate …

H3.3 is enriched in active genes in the RhIP assay.

(A) An aggregate plot of reads occupancy surrounding the TSS of active or inactive genes from the RhIP-ChIP-seq of H3.3. (B) The results of RhIP-ChIP-qPCR of H3.3. ChIP enrichments (fold enrichment …

Figure 1—figure supplement 2
CAF-1 and HIRA in permeabilized cells are essential for H3.1 and H3.3 incorporations in the RhIP assay.

(A) Scheme of cell fractionation (left). HeLa cells were treated with non-ionic detergent and the supernatant (soluble fraction), which is removed from permeabilized cells, and the pellet, which …

Figure 1—figure supplement 3
The exogenously added H3.1 and H3.3 are mostly incorporated into the chromatin in the RhIP assay.

(A) Scheme of the RhIP-immunostaining with harsh washing conditions. The RhIP assay was performed with H3.1-H4 and H3.3-H4, and then the cells were washed with PBST or PBST containing 300 mM NaCl …

Identification of responsible residues for H2A- and H2A.Z-specific incorporations.

(A) Amino acid alignments of the H2A.Z M6 region and its counterpart in H2A (upper). The structural models of the H2A.Z-H2B and H2A-H2B dimers (PDB IDs: 3WA9 and 3AFA, respectively). The specific …

Model of differential histone incorporations into open and closed chromatin.

In open chromatin, the H2A-H2B and H2A.X-H2B complexes are incorporated in replication-independent (RI) and replication-coupled (RC) manners, respectively, while H2A.Z-H2B is incorporated only in a …
