Architectural Organization of Dinoflagellate Liquid Crystalline Chromosomes

Architectural Organization of Dinoflagellate Liquid Crystalline Chromosomes

Dinoflagellates have some of the largest genome sizes, but lack architectural nucleosomes. Their liquid crystalline chromosomes (LCCs) are the only non-architectural protein-mediated chromosome packaging systems, having high degrees of DNA superhelicity, liquid crystalline condensation and high leve...
