Structural basis of histone H2A-H2B recognition by the essential chaperone FACT

The crystal structure of the FACT histone chaperone domain Spt16M in complex with the H2A-H2B heterodimer is solved; Spt16M makes several interactions with histones and seems to block the interaction of H2B with DNA, which could explain how FACT destabilizes nucleosomes to promote transcription.
