At5g12910

Gene
At5g12910
Protein
Histone H3-like 4
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Length
131 amino acids
Function
Core component of nucleosome. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called histone code, and nucleosome remodeling (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the histone H3 family.
