Distinct nucleosome distribution patterns in two structurally and functionally differentiated nuclei of a unicellular eukaryote

2015-04-30

Abstract excerpt

The ciliate protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila contains two types of structurally and functionally differentiated nuclei: the transcriptionally active somatic macronucleus (MAC) and the transcriptionally silent germ-line micronucleus (MIC). Here we demonstrate that MAC features well-positioned nucleosomes downstream of transcription start sites (TSS) likely connected with promoter proximal pausing of RNA polymeras...
