Trascriptional activation by recruitment

Article Abstract:

Scientific evidence to support the hypothetical gene activation recruitment mechanism indicates that histones actively block the activation site on the deoxyribonucleic acid molecule from holoenzyme activation. Histone depletion results in increased gene expression while high levels of histone are capable of halting transcription. This research suggests histones play a significant role in gene regulation.
