Does protein produce DNA?
DNA are not chemically having protein. But DNA are coiled to chromatin structures by proteins called histones. DNA can interact with proteins for various reason including DNA replication.DNA are not chemically bonded with proteins. But they do interact with protins for various process including DNA replication. In nucleus, DNA coiled to form chromatin structures by histone proteins.
What is the protein around which chromosomal DNA is coiled?
Histones are the most abundant proteins found in chromosomes.
What basic protein forms the unit around which DNA is coiled in the nucleosomes of eukaryotic chromosomes?
Histones and other associated proteins
In eukaryotic chromosomes DNA is tightly coiled around proteins called?
The "beads on a string" are called nucleosomes.
Are Viral chromosomes are made up of RNA?
No, Chromosomes are not made up of proteins, they are made up of supercoiled DNA, which is a combination of two phosphate sugar back bones, conected by bases.Chromosomes are made of proteins. DNA is tightly coiled around histones which are proteins. Here check this website out:Are_chromosomes_made_of_molecules
What consists of DNA tightly coiled around proteins?
Chromosomes
What is the structure of all the chromosomes?
Each chromosome is made up of DNA tightly coiled many times around proteins called histones that support its structure.Chromosomes are made up of chromatin, tangled DNA networks, that are 'super-coiled' and large enough to be seen by a microscope.
How are long strands of DNA capable of fitting inside tiny molecules?
the DNA tightly coils around a group of bead like proteins called histones

What is the protein around which chromosomal DNA is coiled?
Histones are the most abundant proteins found in chromosomes.
How are chromosomes DNA related?
Chromosomes are tightly coiled structures of DNA (and proteins).
Do proteins help support DNA structure and its functions?
DNA encodes proteins so all proteins are derived from a section of DNA (a gene). Within the chromosome though, DNA is very tightly packaged, being coiled and super-coiled, and then wrapped around protein histones. This dramatically reduces the length of DNA so that it can be packed into the nucleus of a cell. As well as this, enzymes which are made up of proteins are used in the process of transcription and translation, which is where the DNA is read leading to the production of proteins. Some of these enzymes include DNA helicase (involved in the unwinding of the DNA duplex) and DNA polymerase (synthesises the nucleotides of DNA together into a strand).
What packages DNA and proteins in a eukaryotic nuclei?
DNA is in chromosomes.They are super coiled in chromosomes.
Is DNA a protein or not?
That depends. DNA undergoing replication is assisted by varieties of proteins to make a new strand. Also, in order for DNA to be coiled into chromosomes, the DNA must be wrapped around the protein histone. But in the actual structure of DNA, no, there are no proteins.
What is a chromosome made up of?
Chromosomes are made of a single strand of DNA. There are also some proteins that are bound to this DNA in order to manage it and keep it coiled, these are also sometimes referred to as part of the chromosome.
What basic protein forms the unit around which DNA is coiled in the nucleosomes of eukaryotic chromosomes?
Histones and other associated proteins
