Abstract excerpt
Chromatin compaction and gene accessibility are orchestrated by assembly and disassembly of nucleosomes. Although the disassembly process was widely studied, little is known about the structure and dynamics of the disordered histone tails, which play a pivotal role for nucleosome integrity. This is a gap filling experimental FRET study from the perspective of the histone H3 N-terminal tail (H3NtT) of...
