The majority of
DNA
in eukaryotic cells is packaged by histones and many poorly characterized nonhistone proteins to form a dynamic structure known as chromatin. Chromatin is a periodic structure made up of repeating, regularly spaced subunits, the nucleosomes. Elegant genetic experiments have clearly demonstrated that histones play a central role in transcriptional control (

). Moreover, histones, via protein-protein interactions or by playing an architectural role, can facilitate or inhibit the transcriptional activation process (

). It also appears that the function of histones themselves may be regulated by protein modifications and therefore may be targets for cell signaling pathways (
