Abstract
Histones' H2A and H2B peptidic points which interact with nucleosomal DNA have been identified by using the methods of DNA--protein covalent cross-linking. H2B can be linked to DNA via its N-terminal tail and via several lysines contained within residues 24-34. The most prominent site of histone H2A covalent linking to DNA is His-123, the less prominent being Lys-119 and Lys-124.
