Average Correlations between L1 Loops and Relevant Regions of the Nucleosome Core Particle for Each System
| System | L1-L1′ | L1-DD | L1-DD′ | L1-DNA |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Canonical NCP | 0.42 | 0.38 | 0.36 | 0.49 |
| L1-mutant | 0.70 | 0.51 | 0.51 | 0.48 |
| MacroH2A NCP | 0.73 | 0.56 | 0.60 | 0.48 |
| H2A.Z NCP | 0.67 | 0.38 | 0.38 | 0.44 |
The L1-L1′ and L1-DD(′) correlations are significantly stronger in the systems possessing the macroH2A L1 loops, whereas L1 correlations to the DNA extremities are unchanged. The associated docking domain is abbreviated as DD, and the docking domain of the opposing dimer is abbreviated as DD′.
