Histones are Found In

Question

Histones are found in
A) nucleosomes.
B) proteasomes.
C) lysosomes.
D) vesicles.
E) endosomes.

Accepted Answer

Histones are a family of basic proteins found in eukaryotic chromatin, where they serve as the structural building blocks of nucleosomes. Nucleosomes are the basic structural units of DNA packaging in eukaryotic cells, consisting of a core of eight histone proteins around which DNA is wrapped. Therefore, histones are primarily found in nucleosomes.
