Frenster's
Model
of
Gene
Regulation
- Histones stabilize the DNA double helix by interacting with the negative phosphate groups of DNA.
This prevents the separation of strands, and consequently transcription.
The histones thus act as general repressors of protein synthesis.
Histones are displaced from DNA by nuclear polyions which form complexes with histones.
