There is a growing body of evidence that acetylation of histone N-termini in specific chromosomal regions contributes to gene control by regulating the binding of histones to DNA and regulation of the folding state of chromatin. The extent of histone acetylation is correlated with the relative resistance of chromatin DNA to digestion by nucleases. Which combination of histone acetylation state and DNAse 1 resistance is characteristic of actively transcribed regions of chromatin?

The chromosomal karyotypes of two species of small deer, the Reeves muntjac and the Indian muntjac, are strikingly different despite the fact that the two genomes contain about the same amount of DNA. However, within a species, there are properties of chromosomes that are the same, i.e. species-specific. Select the answer that contains all of these species-specific properties of chromosomes at metaphase

Not all bacteria need to maintain their DNA in a negatively supercoiled state. Bacteria that prefer to grow at very high temperatures must expend energy. Which of the following observation found to be true?
A. Bacteria don’t need to expend energy to prevent their DNA from unwinding due to thermal denaturation
B. These bacterial organisms have a different topoisomerase called reverse gyrase
C. Reverse gyrase decrease the linking number of relaxed DNA in the presence of ATP

Negatively charged phosphate groups in the DNA backbone must be neutralized in order for folding of DNA to occur. In bacterial DNA, this charge neutralization is carried out by small positively charged molecules called polyamines. What proteins carry out this same function in eukaryotic cells?
