The histone tag, characterized by lysine 8 acetylation on histone H4, identifies a significant departure from the histone ...

The beads are called nucleosomes. Each nucleosome is made of DNA wrapped around eight histone proteins that function like a spool and are called a histone octamer. Each histone octamer is composed ...

In a preprint uploaded to bioRxiv this January that has yet to undergo peer review, the team describes hundreds of potential histone proteins in bacteria, including one that they predict interacts ...

How? Scientists are using ChIP and PCR to find out. To examine changes in histone modification during blood cell development in chickens, the investigators started with whole chromatin from ...
