Structural Transition of the Nucleosome during Transcription Elongation

In eukaryotes, genomic DNA is tightly wrapped in chromatin. The nucleosome is a basic unit of chromatin, but acts as a barrier to transcription. To overcome this impediment, the RNA polymerase II elongation complex disassembles the nucleosome during transcription elongation. After the RNA polymerase...
