Discuss the differences between the compaction levels of metaphase chromosomes and those of interphase chromosomes. Whenwould you expect gene transcription and DNA replication to takeplace, during M phase or interphase? Explain why
The interphase is the part of the eukaryotic cell cycle that is most transcriptionally active. Gene regulation during this phase involves changes in the chromatin.
a) What is chromatin?
b) How can the chromatin structure change?
Describe the appearance and composition of chromatin and the structure of nucleosomes. Comment on the significance of histone proteins.
