Specific Contributions of Histone Tails and their Acetylation to the Mechanical Stability of Nucleosomes

The distinct contributions of histone tails and their acetylation to nucleosomal stability were examined by mechanical disruption of individual nucleosomes in a single chromatin fiber using an optical trap. Enzymatic removal of H2A/H2B tails primarily decreased the strength of histone–DNA interactio...
