A nucleosome is a section of DNA that is wrapped around a core of proteins. Inside the nucleus, DNA forms a complex with proteins called chromatin, which allows the DNA to be condensed into a ...

The cell's genetic material, DNA, is packaged into tightly wound structures called nucleosomes. The DNA (red) is wound around two sets of core histone proteins (green) to form a kind of bead on a ...

A group including Jonathan Widom at Northwestern University and Eran Segal of the Weizman Institute used sophisticated computer modeling along with experimental approaches to uncover DNA-encoded rules ...

The central part of each nucleosome (core particle) is a cylindrical structure (5.7 nanometers in height and 11 in diameter) ...

VolitionRx Limited (NYSE AMERICAN: VNRX) ("Volition"), a multi-national epigenetics company, today announces the publication of "Evaluation of plasma nucleosome concentrations and the effect of ...

This study proposes a new mechanism by which Chd1 senses and responds to DNA unwrapping via EDBL engagement to suppress ...

One chromatin remodeling mechanism called "nucleosome sliding" allows a nucleosome to be "moved" to control gene access, but how this works has been incompletely understood. To address this gap ...
