You engineer a strain of S. cerevisiae cells that express mutant histone octomer complexes that exhibit a negatively-charged DNA-binding surface. Which of the following would you expect to happen in a sample of these cells?
The chromosomes of the mutant strain would condense only during mitosis.
Nucleosome core particles would not form.
Epigenetic inheritance would be observed.
All chromatin in the mutant strain would be condensed.
The DNA would package too tightly for any gene expression to occur.
