摘要
Single-stranded regions (gaps) in nucleosomal DNA interfere with action of the RSC chromatin-remodeling complex, monitored by exposure of restriction endonuclease cutting sites. Single-strand breaks (nicks) in the DNA, by contrast, have no effect. Gaps on one side of the cutting site are inhibitory, but gaps on the other side are not. A gap > 100 bp from the cutting site is as effective as a gap <20 bp from the site. These findings suggest a remodeling process involving bending, but not twisting, of the DNA and further point to the propagation of a bent region (loop or bulge) from one end of the nucleosome to the other.
