Abstract
We describe a replication-independent, cell cycle-regulated chromatin assembly pathway in budding yeast. The activity of this pathway is low in S phase extracts but is very high in G2, M, and G1 cell extracts, with peak activity in late M/early G1. The cell cycle regulation of this pathway requires a specific pattern of posttranslational modification of histones H3 and/or H4, which is distinct for H3/H4 present in S phase versus M and G1 phase cell extracts. Histone H3/H4 modification is therefore important for the reciprocal control of replication-dependent and -independent chromatin assembly pathways during the cell cycle.Entities:
