Chromatin structure and epigenetics.
In eukaryotic cells, the DNA molecule is found in the form of a nucleoprotein complex named chromatin. The basic unit of the chromatin is the nucleosome, which comprises 147 base pairs of DNA wrapped around an octamer of core histones (made of two molecules of each H2A, H2B, H3, and H4 histones). Each nucleosome is linked to the next by small segments of linker DNA. Most chromatin is further co...
متن کاملChromatin Structure and Function
In the best articles, generally those dealing with basic Chromosome Puffs research, the combination of depth and accessibility is impressive. One on Hox genes introduces the notion of The Science Times Book of Genetics a conserved body plan among species, illustrating the Edited by Nicholas Wade point with the fauna of Star Trek, and continues with New York: The Lyons Press (1999). 256 pp. an e...

متن کاملNiacin status impacts chromatin structure.
Niacin is required to form NAD and NADP, which are involved in many essential redox reactions in cellular metabolism. In addition, NAD(+) acts as a substrate for a variety of ADP-ribosylation reactions, including poly- and mono-ADP-ribosylation of proteins, formation of cyclic ADP-ribose, and the generation of O-acetyl-ADP-ribose in deacetylation reactions. These nonredox reactions are critical...
متن کاملStructure of transcriptionally active chromatin.
Rat-liver chromatin has bee fractionated into transcriptionally active and inactive regions [Gottesfeld et al. (1974) Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA 71, 2193-2197] and the distribution of nuclease-resistant complexes in these fractions has been investigated. About half of the DNA of both fractions is resistant to attack by tne endonuclease DNase II. The nuclease-resistant structures of inactive chro...
