Abstract:in approximately 1.7 superhelical turns. How this nucleosome-decorated DNA further folds into higher level arrangements has been a subject of intensive study since the discovery of the nucleosome. Models used to account for different experimental properties of chromatin often disagree with one another. We have recently found that these discrepancies may arise from the choice of nucleosome core particle (NCP) structure used in the model. Here we present a survey of the precise DNA folding around the histone cor… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
