Base pair stacking in nucleosome DNA and bendability sequence pattern

DNA deformation in the nucleosome involves partial unstacking between bases and base pairs. By adjusting orientations of different base-pair stacks relative to the histone octamer surface, the optimal set of stacks and their positions is derived, resulting in a sequence pattern, theoretically best suitable for nucleosome DNA. The sequence is very much consistent with available experimental data, thus, suggesting a common eukaryotic nucleosome DNA bendability sequence pattern based exclusively on the very basics of DNA.
