Fig. 9: Coupling between DNA unwrapping and DNA loosening near the dyad through H3-latch interactions.
From: Histone dynamics mediate DNA unwrapping and sliding in nucleosomes

a DNA unwrapping as a function of simulation time of the distal DNA end in NCPtt147. b DNA distortions of the proximal half of the nucleosomal DNA visualized through the position register shift plot for the bottom DNA strand. c An MD snapshot showing the simultaneous DNA unwrapping, DNA distortion near the dyad, and detachment of the H3-latch from the inner DNA gyre near the dyad. Initial X-ray state is shown in cyan.
