Chromatin
Linked via "transcriptional permissiveness"
| Ubiquitination | Lysine | Can signal degradation or transcriptional elongation | Reverses the intrinsic chirality of the histone fold domain |
Acetylation, catalyzed by Histone Acetyltransferases, generally correlates with transcriptional permissiveness (e.g., euchromatin) as it reduces the affinity between the positively charged histone tails… -

Chromatin
Linked via "Euchromatin"
Chromatin exists dynamically along a spectrum, typically categorized into two broad functional states:
Euchromatin: Less condensed, transcriptionally active regions. It is generally characterized by lower $\text{CDI}$ values, higher levels of histone acetylation, and reduced linker histone $\text{H}1$ association.
Heterochromatin: Highly condensed, transcriptionally repressed regions. This state is maintained by complex recruitment machiner…
