A cell structure containing DNA and histone proteins that is differentiated from a nucleoid by the presence of histones.

2
New cards

Nucleoid

A region found in prokaryotes that serves as the location for DNA and lacks histone proteins.

3
New cards

Histone proteins

Proteins associated with DNA in the nucleus whose presence is a primary factor in differentiating a nucleus from a nucleoid.

4
New cards

Prokaryotes

Organisms that contain a nucleoid rather than a nucleus.

DNA

The genetic material found in both the nucleus and nucleoid, which associates with histone proteins in the nucleus.
