To fit the two-meter long DNA molecule into a cell nucleus ... within heterochromatin and repress the output of non-coding RNA. In contrast to less densely compacted regions known as euchromatin ...

According to typical textbook models, chromatin occurs in two forms— euchromatin, that is less condensed and can be transcribed, and heterochromatin, that is more condensed and usually not ...

Inside every human cell, 2 meters of DNA must be tightly packed into a tiny nucleus ... exists in two main forms: euchromatin, where genes are active, and heterochromatin, where gene activity ...

DNA exists inside of a cell's nucleus in two forms: euchromatin and heterochromatin. Euchromatin gets all of the attention because it encodes most of the genome, while heterochromatin, which is ...

In particular, euchromatin with rich active genes localizes to the interior of the nucleus during interphase; heterochromatin usually localizes to the periphery of the nucleus. Akinori Awazu ...

Genetic material is organized within the cell nucleus as chromatin ... states when the cell is not dividing: euchromatin (less condensed) and heterochromatin (more condensed).

Some areas of the nucleus contain heterochromatin, in which DNA is packed tightly around proteins called histones. Other nuclear areas contain euchromatin, which is more loosely packed.

To fit the two-meter long DNA molecule into a cell nucleus ... within heterochromatin and repress the output of non-coding RNA. In contrast to less densely compacted regions known as euchromatin ...

In contrast to the easily accessible euchromatin ... the heterochromatin regions can be read. “Our experiments show that Prdm3 and Prdm16 attach a methyl group at H3K9. This single-methylated H3 ...
