In recent years, the connection between chromatin structure and its transcriptional activity has attracted considerable experimental effort. The post-translational modifications to both the core histones and the linker histones are finely tuned through interactions with transcriptional regulators and change chromatin structure in a way to allow transcription to occur. Here we review evidence for the involvement of linker histones in transcriptional regulation and suggest a scenario in which the reversible and controllable binding/displacement of proteins of this class to the nucleosome entry/exit point determine the accessibility of the nucleosomal DNA to the transcriptional machinery.
