Chromatin is a complex of DNA and protein, found in eukaryotic cells, which packages DNA molecules into compact structures to fit within cells. Chromatin also regulates gene expression, controlling which genes are expressed when and where in the body, helps chromosomes correctly segregate into daughter cells after cell division, and prevents DNA from getting tangled, thus helping to stop DNA damage.
