Removal of histone H1 and RSC remodelling of the dinucleosome are necessary for efficient repair of 8-oxoG within the nucleosomal DNA. The 20-bp linker dinucleosomes, containing a single 8-oxoG in close vicinity to the nucleosome dyad, (see schematics at upper panel) with or without histone H1 were treated with either 2.5 U of RSC or 18× excess of NAP-1 or with both as indicated. At the same time the samples were treated with 1 U of OGG1 for 90 min and the cleaved DNA was run on 8% denaturing gel (middle panel). The position of the full length (FL) and cleaved (cut) DNA are indicated; 1/2, half of the amount of RSC; *indicates the position of the 32P radioactive label. Quantified data are shown on the lower panel as percentage of cut fractions. The relative SD is ±10–12% for lines 1–4 and ±3.5–5% for lines 5–10.
