Structural plasticity of single chromatin fibers revealed by torsional manipulation
Aurelien Bancaud, Natalia Conde e Silva, Maria Barbi +8
Magnetic tweezers are used to study the mechanical response under torsion of single nucleosome arrays reconstituted on tandem repeats of 5S positioning sequences. Regular arrays ar…
