Calculate the Number of Nucleosomes in a Human Diploid Cell Assume that there is one nucleosome for every 200 bp of eukaryotic DNA. How many nucleosomes are there in a diploid human cell? Nucleosomes in be approximated a disks 11 nm in diameter and 6 nm long. If all the DNA molecules in a diploid human cell are in the B-conformation, what is the sum of their lengths? If this DNA is now arrayed on nucleosomes in the beads-on-a-string motif, what would be the approximate total height of the nucleosome column if these disks were stacked atop one another?
