Abstract excerpt
Zinc is a trace element that plays a crucial role in regulating various biological processes. To identify the factors involved in maintaining zinc homeostasis, we analysed the growth of histone mutants and gene deletions of chromatin-modifying factors. Growth assays revealed that specific regions and amino acid residues of histones H3 and H4, along with several chromatin-modifying factors, are essential for...
