A process that is carried out at the cellular level that results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of chromosomes, structures composed of a very long molecule of DNA and associated proteins that carries hereditary information. The replacement, within chromatin, of resident histones or histone subunits with alternative, sometimes variant, histones or subunits. Any process that is carried out at the cellular level, but not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. Any process that results in the specification, formation or maintenance of the physical structure of eukaryotic chromatin. The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of a nucleosome, the beadlike structural units of eukaryotic chromatin composed of histones and DNA. The controlled breakdown of nucleosomes, the beadlike structural units of eukaryotic chromatin composed of histones and DNA. Any process by which macromolecules aggregate, disaggregate, or are modified, resulting in the formation, disassembly, or alteration of a macromolecular complex. Any process that modulates the number of nucleosomes in a given region of a chromosome. The formation or destruction of chromatin structures on newly replicated DNA, coupled to strand elongation. The formation or destruction of chromatin structures, occurring outside the context of DNA replication. The movement of nucleosomes along a DNA fragment. Ordering of successions of nucleosomes into regular arrays so that nucleosomes are positioned at defined distances from one another. A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of one or more nucleosomes. Any process carried out at the cellular level by which macromolecules aggregate, disaggregate, or are modified, resulting in the formation, disassembly, or alteration of a macromolecular complex.
