Organizing the genome with H2A histone variants.

The Biochemical journal - 1 Feb 2013

Millar Catherine B

Abstract excerpt

Chromatin acts as an organizer and indexer of genomic DNA and is a highly dynamic and regulated structure with properties directly related to its constituent parts. Histone variants are abundant components of chromatin that replace canonical histones in a subset of nucleosomes, thereby altering nucleosomal characteristics. The present review focuses on the H2A variant histones, summarizing current knowledge of...
