Chromatin structure plays the crucial role in proper gene functioning. Therefore, it is very important to investigate nucleosomal DNA properties and recognize genome nucleosome positioning sequences. Nevertheless, applying different sequence analysis methods separately is insufficient for complete nucleosomal DNA description. One of the most probable reasons for that is the weakness of nucleosome positioning signals. The present paper offers a set of methods to reveal the most important nucleosomal DNA characteristics and to show a common pattern of nucleosome site properties.
