18.1 Introduction Chromatin describes the condition of the chromosomal material during the interphase (between mitoses)of the cell cycle. Chromosome is a discrete unit of the genome carrying many genes.Each chromosome consists of a very long molecule of duplex DNA and an approximately equal mass of proteins.It is visible as a morphological entity only during cell division. Nucleoid is the compact body that contains the genome in a bacterium. Packing ratio is the ratio of the length of DNA to the unit length of the fiber containing it. 清菜大当

18.3 The bacterial genome is a nucleoid with many supercoiled loops Domain of a chromosome may refer either to a discrete structural entity defined as a region within which supercoiling is independent of other domains; or to an extensive region including an expressed gene that has heightened sensitivity to degradation by the enzyme DNAase I. Nucleoid is the compact body that contains the genome in a bacterium. 清菜大学
