Nucleoprotein

A nucleosome is a combination of DNA + histone proteins.

Nucleoproteins are complexes formed by proteins conjugated with nucleic acids (either DNA or RNA). However It could sometimes mean just a protein relevant to nucleic acid. Typical nucleoproteins include ribosomes, nucleosomes and viral nucleocapsid (caspid + viral genome).
