Structural and thermodynamic impact of oncogenic mutations on the nucleosome core particle.

Abstract excerpt

The nucleosome core particle is essential for chromatin structure and function, serving as the fundamental unit of eukaryotic chromatin. Oncogenic mutations in core histones disrupt chromatin dynamics, altering DNA repair and transcription processes. Here, we investigate the molecular consequences of two mutations-H2BE76K and H4R92T-using 36 μs of all-atom molecular dynamics simulations and experimental...
