Example:The structure of the nucleoprotein complex is crucial for the storage and transmission of genetic information.

Definition:A complex consisting of a polypeptide (protein) covalently bound to DNA, RNA, or both

Example:Nucleosomes are the primary building blocks of chromatin, the material that makes up chromosomes.

Definition:The basic unit of chromatin, consisting of DNA wrapped around a core of histone proteins

Example:DNA-protein interactions play a key role in determining the accessibility of genes to the transcription machinery.

Definition:A biological interaction between a protein and DNA, which is often critical for gene expression and regulation
