Abstract:Regulation of nucleosome positioning is important for neurodevelopment, and mutation of genes mediating chromatin remodelling are strongly associated with human neurodevelopmental disorders. Unicellular organisms possess arrays of highly positioned nucleosomes within their chromatin, occupying up to 80% of their genomes. These span gene-coding and regulatory regions, and can be associated with local changes of gene transcription. In the much larger genome of human cells, the roles of nucleosome positioning are… Show more
