Q

DNA helix interacts with what to go from 2nm to 10nm

A

The helix interacts with proteins called Histones, 8 of them. 8 of them make what’s called a histone optima. The DNA wraps around an optima 1.67 times, which increases its diameter to 10nm.

Q

10nm to 30nm involves what

A

reacts with another Histone, H1, which causes the nuclesome, DNA + histone proteins, to coil into rope like structure that makes DNA go from 10-30nm
