Transcription-generated torsional stress destabilizes nucleosomes
Nature Structural &Molecular Biology, 2013 As RNA polymerase II (Pol II) transcribes a gene, it encounters an array of well-ordered nucleosomes. How it traverses through this array in vivo remains unresolved.

The relationships among GC content, nucleosome occupancy, and exon size [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 The average size of internal translated exons, ranging from 120 to 165 nt across metazoans, is approximately the size of the typical mononucleosome (147 nt). Genome-wide study has also shown that nucleosome occupancy is significantly higher in exons than in introns, which might indicate that the evolution of exon size is related to its nucleosome ...

Extrinsic and intrinsic nucleosome positioning signals [PDF]
arXiv, 2008 In eukaryotic genomes, nucleosomes function to compact DNA and to regulate access to it both by simple physical occlusion and by providing the substrate for numerous covalent epigenetic tags. While nucleosome positions in vitro are determined by sequence alone, in vivo competition with other DNA-binding factors and action of chromatin remodeling ...

Gene splice sites correlate with nucleosome positions [PDF]
arXiv, 2004 Gene sequences in the vicinity of splice sites are found to possess dinucleotide periodicities, especially RR and YY, with the period close to the pitch of nucleosome DNA. This confirms previously reported finding about preferential positioning of splice junctions within the nucleosomes.
