Nuclease Micrococcal digestion of bulk chromatin What does this tell you? Gene Regulation in prokaryotes vs. eukaryotes In eukaryotes, the ground state is restrictive What is the silent state? RNAP cant assemble on promoters packaged->chromatin What is the poised state? Basic chromatin structure in growing cells Fig 4-22 MBofC5 Figure 04-05 DNA is highly electronegative. What does this suggest about histones and their role in DNA compaction? Histones are post-translationally modified. This histone code overlays on top of the genetic code and directs packaging and access to the genome Figure 04-12 Figure Molecular 4-38 Biology of the Cell ( Garland Science 2008) Zigzag model for 30nm fiber Condensation of nucleosomes->30 nm fiber requires histone H1 Xray crystal structure based on a tetrasome Solenoid model for 30 nm fiber based on cryo-EM Nucleosome positioning: Are histones randomly distributed across genes or are they phased? Chromatin Immunprecipitation and microarrays Limited in resolution and/or scope Genome-scale fine mapping identifies general rules of nucleosome positioning NextGen Sequencing There are several different techniques. This is Solexa (or Illumina) sequencing movie NextGen Sequencing
