MtrDRAFT_AC149210g1v1

Gene
MtrDRAFT_AC149210g1v1
Protein
Probable histone H2A.1
Organism
Medicago truncatula
Length
148 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.
Similarity
Belongs to the histone H2A family.
