Chromatin 'programming' by sequence - is there more to the nucleosome code than %GC?

Amanda Hughes, Oliver J Rando Journal of Biology 2009, 8:96 (23 December 2009)

How far is packaging of DNA by nucleosomes directed by DNA sequence? Hughes and Rando discuss this issue in the light of new research in BMC Bioinformatics indicating that nucleosome occupancy is largely determined by the GC content of DNA.
