2006), as discussed later in this article. Chromatin structure is highly complex and impressively dynamic. Scientists now realize that the nucleosome, which was once thought to be static ...

Research published in Cell Research from Mario Halic, PhD, St. Jude Department of Structural Biology, revealed 13 distinct ...

As previously mentioned, chromatin is remodeled (and thus, nucleosome structure is altered) primarily through posttranslational modifications of histone proteins, which actually change the ...

Chromatin remodeling plays a vital role in gene regulation, affecting how DNA is accessed. Disruptions in this process can ...

This discovery changes how scientists think about chromatin. Instead of being a static structure, chromatin is constantly moving, influencing how genes are read and used by the cell. "In simple ...
