Solution scattering and FRET studies on nucleosomes reveal DNA unwrapping effects of H3 and H4 tail removal.
Using a combination of small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) measurements we have determined the role of the H3 and H4 histone tails, independently, in stabilizing the nucleosome DNA terminal ends from unwrapping from the nucleosome core. We have perfo...
