10-nm chromatin fiber consists of nucleosomesbeads of DNA wound around eight core histone proteinsconnected by strands of linker DNA. The 30-nm chromatin fiber is created by the binding of histone H1, which brings the linker DNA and the nucleosomes closer together. In the solenoid model of the 30-nm fiber, the nucleosomes are brought together into a spiraling helical structure, with about six nucleosomes per complete turn.
