The regulatory protein GAL80 is a determinant of the chromatin structure of the yeast GAL1-10 control region
Abstract
Chromatin in the regions between the upstream activator sequence and the 5' ends of the yeast GAL1 and GAL10 genes has been analyzed by DNase I chromosomal footprinting and micrococcal nuclease digestion using the indirect end-labeling approach. Comparison of wild type chromatin digests to naked DNA digests shows that there are specific regions of these upstream sequences which are strongly protected in chromatin. Comparison to chromatin digests from cells disrupted for the positive regulatory gene, GAL4, or the negative regulatory gene, GAL80, and thus lacking GAL4 or GAL80 function, shows that these regions of protection in wild type chromatin are GAL80-dependent but not GAL4-dependent. The protected regions include DNA lying on (GAL10) or near (GAL1) the respective TATA boxes. These protections are present in both noninduced and induced cells. Both DNA strands are equally protected. Upstream of GAL1 there is a second protected region. This protection shows considerable expression and strand dependence. These observations provide the first evidence that the GAL80 function influences chromatin structure and suggest possible mechanisms by which GAL80 modulates the GAL1 and 10 promoters in induced cells. Micrococcal nuclease digests also suggest a role for GAL80 in a distinctive higher order organization of the intergenic region, perhaps involving multiprotein complexes.
