Arabidopsis Col nucleosome cores
Determination of nucleosome positions in Arabidopsis
Nucleosome cores were isolated following MNase digestion of a crude lysate from whole 12 day old seedlings. Illumina sequencing was then carried out on the isolated core sequences and the sequences mapped back to the genome.
Aim of the study is to determine where Arabidopsis nucleosomes are positioned across the genome. In particular the aim is to find regions of the genome where nucleosome positions are strongly defined.
