Chromatin: Structure, Function, and History covers the basics of
chromatin biology, beginning with the discoveries that culminated
in the recognition of the nucleosome as the basic subunit of
chromatin. Chromatin folding, nucleosome positioning, and histone
variants are discussed, as well as research on chromatin
modifications and remodeling, which exploded in the early to
mid-1990s and led to widespread interest in epigenetics.
Considerable attention is given to methods and experiments that led
to key insights and recent developments such as the use of
genome-wide approaches and innovations in imaging approaches are
also emphasized. By providing historical background together with
detailed discussion of contemporary studies, the book aims to
instill in the reader an appreciation not only of our current
knowledge of chromatin structure and function, but also of the
remarkable path that has taken chromatin to the forefront of modern
research.
