Abstract

Nucleosome positions mapped The organization of nucleosomes across the genome influences gene regulation, and understanding the mechanisms that underlie this organization in different organisms is an active area of research. In this study, genome-wide maps of nucleosome positions in three primary human cell types and in vitro have been generated by high-throughput DNA sequencing. Most of the genome exhibits substantial flexibility of nucleosome positions, and a combination of intrinsic sequence-based nucleosome preferences and interactions with non-nucleosomal factors determine nucleosome organization in vivo.
