Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The nucleosome complex consists of the octamer of histone proteins wrapped around DNA. It is made up of basic amino acids like lysine and arginine. This complex helps in the regulation of processes like transcription in the cell. The core complex consists of histones H1 and H5, histones H2A, histone H2B, H3 and H4.
