Ever since Watson and Crick solved the double helical structure of DNA, it has been thought that the key to chromosome replication is the unwinding of the parental duplex, so that each strand can be used a template upon which to build another. But ... more

Experimental excess wide-angle X-ray scattering curves from DNA in solution, from Na-DNA crystallites in mother-liquor, from mononucleosomes in solution and from nucleosome core histone complexes are compared with each other and with calculated ... more

Chromatin is the usual form of the DNA in a cell. It has the appearance of grainy blobs in the nucleus because it is too thin to be seen as actual strings. Imagine unwinding a whole ball of kite string and just having a massive heap of string on ... more

Hg-UMP-containing transcripts made from chick erythroid chromatins with E. coli RNA polymerase hybridize to chick globin cDNA. Contamination with endogenous globin RNA has been largely removed by purification on SH-agarose columns at 55°C. Some ... more

Yes, it is possible with small modifications: 30 µl of shearing buffer (from Shearing ChIP kit) is added per million cells. After shearing, transfer to a new tube the amount of chromatin needed (corresponding to a determined cell equivalent), and ... more

Estimation of the size of chromatin fragments without the reversion of cross-linking is not too precise. The presence of the proteins which migrates with the samples on the gel causes that the migration is longer and less precise. However if the ... more
