Demonstrating a Role for Histone H2A.Z in DNA Double Strand Break Repair and Chromosome Stability.
Abstract: The epigenome influences gene expression and chromosome dynamics without causing any changes in their DNA sequence. Heavy hitters in the world of epigenetics include the family of histone proteins, such as the nucleosome forming H2A, H2B, H3, and H4 proteins. Other histones include H1, present on linker DNA outside of the core histone octamer, … Read more
