Additional factors regulating transcriptional activity include: i) cofactors and small molecules that enable TF-DNA recognition and RNA polymerase recruitment [3]; ii) chromatin modifications, such as

• -terminal histone tails, which project out from the nucleosome (the fundamental repeating unit of chromatin). Acetylation/deacetylation of such lysine residues is achieved by the action of histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs), respectively. Histone deacetylation by HDACs causes

• -containing RAFT copolymer and lysine–rich histone (Kd = 16 nM). In the future, we intend to investigate if it is possible to interrupt the nucleosome complex formation by noncovalent detachment of ds-DNA from its “own” histone proteins using histone-binding RAFT copolymers.
