Uncurved-DNA signals are important for translational positioning of nucleosomes.

Belikov S , Kapranov A , Karpov V .


???displayArticle.abstract???
We describe here a possible mechanism for non-random arrangement of nucleosomes along genomic DNA by short stretches of uncurved DNA. Available biochemical data on nucleosome positioning on different DNA sequences were analyzed. A strong correlation between location of nucleosome borders and location of uncurved sequences along DNA was observed. Tested sequences include satellites, 5S RNA genes and 5' regions of different genes.
