Histone variants: are they functionally heterogeneous?

Genome biology - 1 Jan 2001

Brown D T

Abstract excerpt

In most eukaryotes, histones, which are the major structural components of chromatin, are expressed as a family of sequence variants encoded by multiple genes. Because different histone variants can contribute to a distinct or unique nucleosomal architecture, this heterogeneity can be exploited t...
