Contribution of histone N-terminal tails to the structure and stability of nucleosomes☆☆☆
Histones are the protein components of the nucleosome, which forms the basic architecture of eukaryotic chromatin. Histones H2A, H2B, H3, and H4 are composed of two common regions, the “histone fold” and the “histone tail”. Many efforts have been focused on the mechanisms by which the post-translati...
