A chromatosome is a structural unit of chromatin, which is the material that makes up chromosomes in eukaryotic cells. It consists of a segment of DNA wrapped around a core of histone proteins, specifically containing a core histone octamer made up of two copies each of histone proteins H2A, H2B, H3, and H4, along with an additional molecule of the histone H1.
