Modifications to regions of histone–histone interface. (A) Modifications located at points of contact between histone proteins may control chromatin structure through physical alterations in the nucleosome such as destabilization of tetramer–dimers interactions. (B) Locations of modifications in regions of histone–histone interface are depicted on the crystal structure of the nucleosome. Nucleosome was rendered as described in the legend to Figure 1.
