These small basic proteins contain large amounts of arginine and lysine, and have a net positive charge which facilitates their binding to negatively charged DNA.
These small basic proteins contain large amounts of arginine and lysine, and have a net positive charge which facilitates their binding to negatively charged DNA. There are 5 main types of them, and chromatin contains approximately equal amounts of them and DNA by mass. For 10 points, name these proteins which act as cores for DNA to wrap tightly around, which helps compact the DNA into chromosome structures.
