The histone tag, characterized by lysine 8 acetylation on histone H4, identifies a significant departure from the histone modifications found in neonatal OPCs. Detailed in a paper published in The ...

Each histone octamer is composed of two copies each of the histone proteins H2A, H2B, H3, and H4. The chain of nucleosomes is then wrapped into a 30 nm spiral called a solenoid, where additional ...

An Oryza-specific histone H4 variant (H4.V) forms condensed, less stable nucleosomes. H4.V enhances the salt-stress-dependent deposition of H4 lysine 5 acetylation marks at several protein-coding ...
