A genomic code for nucleosome positioning -- Nature
Computational biology makes it to the NY Times! -- for analysis of chromatin structure. Wonder the degree to which this analysis applies to human encode data.

Researchers believe they have found a second code in DNA in addition to the genetic code. The genetic code specifies all the proteins that a cell makes. The second code, superimposed on the first, sets the placement of the nucleosomes, miniature protein spools around which the DNA is looped. The spools both protect and control access to the DNA itself....
