    Our new article has been published in the Biophysical Journal @BiophysJ: "Nucleosome spacing controls chromatin spatial structure and accessibility". We placed a long #nucleosome chain in a box mimicking natural density conditions. We did not see melting of #chromatin fibers at high densities. Accessibility of #chromatin to diffusive processes increases with higher regularity of nucleosome spacing. authors.elsevier.com/a/1ijrB1S. #hochschulestralsund #lmumünchen

    Extensive multivalent interactions between intrinsically disordered regions in the #BRCA1/#BARD1 #E3 #ligase and #nucleosome substrates facilitate #chromatin recruitment and contribute to histone H2A #ubiquitylation and #DNArepair
