摘要: Using small-angle X-ray scattering, we determined the three-dimensional packing architecture of minichromosome confined within SV40 virus. In solution, minichromosome, composed closed circular dsDNA complexed in nucleosomes, was shown to be structurally similar cellular chromatin. contrast, find a unique organization nanometrically encapsidated chromatin, whereby minichromosomal density is somewhat higher at center capsid and decreases towards walls. This excellent agreement with coarse-grained computer model, accounting for tethered nucleosomal interactions under viral confinement. With analogy liquid crystals, but contrary solenoid structure our simulations indicate that nucleosomes lack orientational order. Nucleosomes layer adjacent wall, however, align boundary, thereby inducing ‘molten droplet’ state These findings suffice predict genome polyomavirus capsids underscore adaptable nature eukaryotic chromatin nanoscale
