Eukaryotic genomes are packaged into linker-oligonucleosome assemblies, providing compaction of genomic DNA and contributing to gene regulation and genome integrity. To define minimal requirements for initial steps in the transition of compact, closed chromatin to a transcriptionally active, open state, we developed a model <i>in vitro</i> system containing a single, unique, "target" nucleosome in the center of a 25-nucleosome array and evaluated the accessibility of the linker DNA adjacent to t ...[more]
