Summary

Description
English: The histone octamer is formed from two subunits each of the four core histones. The four H3 and H4 subunits form a tightly packed tetramer that associates with two H2A/H2B dimers to form each octamer. About 147 bp of DNA is wrapped around the octamer to form a nucleosome. Nucleosomes can be arrayed in the loosely packed beads-on-a-string form of chromatin, but are generally more tightly packaged into the 30-nm fiber. Fiber formation requires histone tails and additional proteins, neither of which is shown here.[1]

The SVG code is valid.
 
This vector image was created with an unknown SVG tool.
This SVG image contains embedded raster graphics.[1] Such images are liable to produce inferior results when scaled to different sizes (as well as possibly being very inefficient in file size). If appropriate to do so, they should be replaced with images created using vector graphics.
Note: This template is only supposed to be used if the SVG file mixes vector and raster graphics. If the SVG file only contains raster graphics {{FakeSVG}} is supposed to be used. See also {{TopoSVG}}.
