A nucleosome is a structural unit of a eukaryotic chromosome, consisting of a length of DNA coiled around a core of histones. (more…)
Category: DNA Binding Protein
DNA-binding proteins are proteins that have DNA-binding domains and thus have a specific or general affinity for single- or double-stranded DNA.
Nucleosome 3C1B
A Nucleosome is the basic structural unit of DNA that assembles into a chromosome. Each nucleosome consists of a segment of DNA wound in sequence around eight histone protein cores. This structure is often compared to thread wrapped around a spool. Use this 3D printed model Nucleosome 3C1B showing how DNA wraps around a histone core to explain…

TDP-43 Wild Type and Mutant in Complex with DNA
TDP-43 Wild Type and Mutant in Complex with DNA ALS is a fatal motor neuron disorder characterized pathologically by TAR DNA binding protein ( TDP-43 ). The function of TDP-43 is uncertain, and role in ALS remains speculative. Genome scanning reveals mutations associated to neural apoptosis. (more…)
