Nucleosomal DNA

The primary Junction of the nucleosomes is to condense DNA. Further condensation of nucleosome DNA requires nonhistone nuclear proteins. These proteins make up a scaffoldlike structure around an additional helix consisting of coiled nucleosomes. This produces a structure that resembles a solenoid, with six nucleosome subunits per turn. The solenoid structure can form large loops that give additional structure to the incipient chromosome. [Pg.219]

Antibiotic Mg complex induced alteration in the ultrastructural changes in the native and HI depleted chromatin were monitored by thermal melting analysis, polyacrylamide gel mobility assay, dynamic light scattering experiments and transmission electron microscopic studies. Micrococcal nuclease digestion is the biochemical probe to assess the accessibility of the antibiotic Mg + complexes to nucleosomal DNA. [Pg.157]

Nucleosomes isolated and purified from chicken erythrocytes and beef kidney crystallized and diffracted to limits of 5-6 A, but led to structural models of 7-8 A resolution [12,14], In these structures, the path of the DNA around the histone core is clearly seen. With the exception of positions about 1.5 and 4.5 helical turns from the center of the nucleosomal DNA in either direction, the DNA appears uniformly bent. Significant compression of the DNA occurs where the minor grooves face... [Pg.14]
