MCQ
Nucleosome core is made of:
  • A
    $\text{H}_1, \text{H}_2\text{A}, \text{H}_2\text{B and H}_3.$
  • B
    $\text{H}_1, \text{H}_2\text{A}, \text{H}_2\text{B}, \text{H}_4.$
  • C
    $\text{H}_1,\text{H}_2\text{A}, \text{H}_2\text{B}, \text{H}_3 \text{ and H}_4.$
  • $\text{H}_2\text{A}, \text{H}_2\text{B}, \text{H}_3 \text{ and H}_4.$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$\text{H}_2\text{A}, \text{H}_2\text{B}, \text{H}_3 \text{ and H}_4.$
Nucleosome core or histone octamer is made up $2$ sub units each of $\text{H}_2\text{A}, \text{H}_2\text{B}, \text{H}_3,\text{H}_4.$
Two cores are linked by the linker $\ce{DNA}$ containing histone $H_1$​​​​​​​ molecule.
