visual references continued

YouTube searches for gene conversion animations have revealed:


(could be a good reference model for strand resolution / DNA repair, after templated gene conversion)

(shown in 'real time', with jerky camera/claymation/David Goodsell color pallette elements)

(histone deacetylation inhibitors increase gene conversion rates, so it's probable that DNA access and its association with histones is an important aspect of which gene segments undergo gene conversion, and why this occurs only in IG DNA)
(this animation may lack some important details, such as the histone tails which are modified in acetylation/deacetylation reactions)
