Abstract:
:Chromosome fibers isolated from lymphocyte nuclei and prepared for electron microscopy by techniques designed to preserve their native structure have a distinctly knobby appearance, suggesting that DNA and protein are not distributed evenly along the fiber axis. Individual knobs (superbeads) are arranged in tandem and have an average diameter of about 200 A. Mild nuclease digestion of isolated nuclei releases apparent monomer superbeads that are composed of nucleohistone particles with the properties of nucleosomes. The kinetics of digestion indicate that the superbead is a discrete structural unit containing, on the average, about eight nucleosomes.

CHROMOSOMA文献大全abstract::Telomeric DNA is present at the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes and is bound by telomere "capping" proteins, which are the (Cdc13-Stn1-Ten1) CST complex, Ku (Yku70-Yku80), and Rap1-Rif1-Rif2 in budding yeast. Inactivation of any of these complexes causes telomere "uncapping," stimulating a DNA damage response (DDR) tha...
