Three-dimensional computer generated model of a nucleosome
Three-dimensional computer generated model of a nucleosome. A nucleosome is the basic unit of DNA packaging in eukaryotes, consisting of a segment of DNA wound in sequence around four histone protein cores in a structure that can be likened to thread wrapped around a spool. In this image the DNA is shown in yellow and the histone protein cores in violet.
