What is true about new nucleosome formation during DNA replciation?
A)Nucleosomes will be composed of different combinations of H3/H4 tetramers and H2A/H2B that are either newly synthesized or were from previous histone octamers.
B)Nucleosomes will be composed of different combinations of H3/H2A tetramers and H4/H2B that are either newly synthesized or were from previous histone octamers.
C)One DNA strand will have newly synhtesized octamers and the other will have previously synthesized octamers.
D)Nucleosomes will be composed of different combinations of H2A/H2BH3/H4 tetramers that are either newly synthesized or were from previous histone octamers.

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Nucleosomes are composed of eight histone proteins: two H2A, two H2B, two H3, and two H4 proteins. During DNA replication, new nucleosomes are formed on both the newly synthesized DNA strand and the parental DNA strand. The new nucleosomes are composed of a combination of newly synthesized histones and histones that were present in the previous histone octamers.
