A rapid method for chromatin structure analysis in the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans.

摘要

A rapid method for nuclease digestion of Aspergillus nidulans chromatin is described. It overcomes the need for nuclear purification or protoplast preparation. The method is valid for the analysis of the nucleosomal repeat length in bulk chromatin, and allows the analysis of nucleosome phasing at a specific locus.
