FIG. 5.

Deletion of the histone H4 amino-terminal tail confers the same chromatin phenotype as deletion of Cks1 does. Histone H3 chromatin immunoprecipitations across the GAL1 promoter and ORF upon induction comparing the wild-type (Wt) strain and strains in which the histone 3 or histone 4 tail was deleted (ΔΗ3 tail or ΔH4 tail, respectively). Primer sets and normalization are as described in the legend to Fig. 1. Values are means ± SDs (error bars). Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences (Student's t test) when comparing ΔΗ3 tail and ΔH4 tail strains 60 min after the addition of galactose. P values are provided in Table 3. PCR primer sequences are provided in Table 2.
