Merge suggestion[edit]

It would make a lo f sense to have all the Nucleoprotein information on the one page. Deoxyribonucleoprotein and Ribonucleoprotein could sensibly be merged into this page to collate the information. If the sections got too large at some later stage they could be re-split. Honestly, DNA-binding protein and Protein–DNA interaction could conceivably be merged in too. Any opinions?

@Evolution and evolvability: I certainly support merging Nucleoprotein, Ribonucleoprotein and Deoxyribonucleoprotein to eliminate massive redundancy and overlap. I think DNA-binding protein is a different thing, though, as I don't think "nucleoprotein" is normally used for transcription factors and proteins involved in DNA replication and so on, except in the context of experiments involving short DNA fragments. DNA-binding protein and Protein–DNA interaction could probably be merged with each other, though. Adrian J. Hunter^{(talk•contribs)} 02:23, 14 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Adrian J. Hunter: Good points. I've gone ahead and done the Deoxyribonucleoprotein-Ribonucleoprotein-Nucleoprotein merge as well as the DNA-binding protein-Protein–DNA interaction. Also added a redirect from empty Protein–RNA interaction to RNA-binding protein. T.Shafee(Evo&Evo)^talk 11:46, 14 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
