When curious kids find their way into regular liquid laundry detergent, the result is often nothing worse than an upset stomach. Laundry deteregent pods are presenting more serious symptoms. Along with vomiting, lethargy, and delirium, some victims have stopped breathing. Eye injuries are another common hazard.
Histones are proteins that allow DNA to be tightly packaged into units called nucleosomes. The DNA wraps itself around the histones. Chromatin is made of DNA and proteins (Histones). Chromatin is used to give structure to a chromosome.
Linker histones such as H1 and its isoforms are involved in chromatin compaction and sit at the base of the nucleosome near the DNA entry and exit binding to the linker region of the DNA. Non-condensed nucleosomes without the linker histone resemble beads on a string of DNA under an electron microscope.he string is the DNA, while each bead in the nucleosome is a core particle. The nucleosome core particle is composed of DNA and histone proteins. Partial DNAse digestion of chromatin reveals its nucleosome structure.
