DNA nucleosome, molecular model F007 / 9888
DNA nucleosome. Molecular model of a nucleosome, the fundamental repeating unit used to package DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) inside cell nuclei. DNA is the molecule that carries the genetic code that forms the basis of all life on Earth. DNAs double helix structure (green and red) is seen here tightly coiled round a core of histone proteins (centre, multicoloured). Each set of two DNA loops around a histone core is known as a nucleosome

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of a DNA nucleosome, the fundamental repeating unit responsible for packaging DNA inside cell nuclei. The double helix structure of DNA, represented by vibrant green and red colors, is tightly coiled around a central core composed of multicolored histone proteins. Each set of two DNA strands elegantly loops around this histone core, forming what is known as a nucleosome. DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, serves as the genetic code that underlies all life on Earth. Its molecular model depicted in this artwork highlights its crucial role in storing and transmitting genetic information. The black background adds to the dramatic effect of this image, emphasizing the complexity and beauty inherent in nature's blueprint for life. With applications spanning research, medicine, genetics, and proteomics among others, understanding the packaging process of DNA within cells holds immense significance. This mesmerizing illustration offers insight into how chromatin condenses into nucleosomes through interactions with histone proteins. The artist behind this stunning molecular model has masterfully captured both scientific accuracy and aesthetic appeal. This print from Science Photo Library represents an invaluable resource for those seeking to delve deeper into biochemistry or simply admire the elegance found within our own cellular makeup.
