    The document discusses two models of eukaryotic genome complexity: the multi-strand model and folded fiber model. The multi-strand model proposes that chromatin fibers are composed of two DNA double helices that coil together. The folded fiber model, which is more popular, proposes that chromosomes contain a single tightly folded DNA helix coated with histones and proteins.

    MULTI-STRAND MODEL

    • Each chromatin fiber is composed of two strands.


    • Each strand consist of a single double helix
    structure.
    • 4 chromatin fibers(each composed of two DNA
    double helix)coil around each other to form quarter
    chromatid.

    12
    FOLDED FIBER MODEL

    • The chromosome is composed of tightly folded


    fiber .
    • Each chromosome fiber contains only one DNA
    helix which in a coiled state.
    • This DNA coil is coated with histones and non-
    histone proteins.
