Ans- Eukaryotic chromosomes consist of repeated units of chromatin called nucleosomes. Nucleosomes are made up of double- stranded DNA that has complexed with small proteins called histones.
How is the nucleosome controlled so it packages DNA tightly or loosely?
31. How many different types of histones are found in the nucleosome that packages mitochondrial DNA? A) zero B) one C) two D) three E) four 32. The theory states that the ancestors of mitochondria and chloroplasts were free living bacteria A) phylogenetic B) endosymbiotic C) cell D) cytoplasmic inheritance E) old world 33. The presence of more than one variation of DNA in the organelles of a single cell is called: A) homoplasmy. B) heteroplasmy. C) hemiplasmy. D) pseudoplasmy....
Nucleosome positioning along the DNA can influence where transcriptional regulatory proteins are able to bind DNA. If a nucleosome is bound to an enhancer sequence, it may outcompete a regulatory protein from binding the same sequence. Conversely, if an enhancer sequence is in the linker DNA where the nucleosome is absent, the regulatory protein does not have to compete with the nucleosome. The position of the nucleosome can alter the accessibility of a sequence of DNA to DNA binding proteins....
In nucleosome structure the histone_aids in stabilizing the wrapping of DNA around the protein octomer. • H1 - H2B . H4 - H3 • H2A
-DNA wraps itself #turns per nucleosome which is about #base pairs. -what is the evidence that eukaryotic DNA is packaged with nuclosomes? list all 4
Question 9: How does the addition of an acetyl group to a histone protein affect nucleosome structure, and why? How would the actions of a histone acetyltransferase or a histone deacetylase affect the rates of transcription, respectively? (Keep in mind that DNA that is easier to access is more robustly transcribed.)
Contrast euchromatin and heterochromatin. Then explain how DNA can transition from one to the other. Use the terms histone, nucleosome, and acetylation.
1. In assembling a nucleosome, normally the …(1) histone dimers first combine to form a tetramer, which then further combines with two … (2) histone dimers to form the octamer. A. 1: H1–H3; 2: H2A–H2B B. 1: H3–H4; 2: H2A–H2B C. 1: H2A–H2B; 2: H1–H3 D. 1: H2A–H2B; 2: H3–H4 E. 1: H1–H2; 2: H3–H4 2. There has been a mutation on several enzymes important in DNA replication. For each enzyme, discuss what the protein normally does and how the...

Need help woth fulo answer. What is a nucleosome & specifically what proteins and how many copies of each make up the nucleosome core particle.
How many total polypeptide chains would be present in a single nucleosome core particle?
