Histones belong to a family of basic or alkaline proteins that are made up of positively charged amino acids. Histone proteins contain a large number of such amino acids as lysine and arginine. What are histones in DNA? Histones are a family of basic proteins that bind to DNA. Due to the...

Diabetes mellitus currently affects over 451 million people across the globe [11] and a wealth of epidemiological evidence indicates that these people are at an increased risk of developing heart failure. In the Framingham cohort, for example, the incidence of congestive heart failure was increased ...

Residues 85–99 in the N-terminal region of Spn1 are critical for H3-H4 binding, while the C-terminal region is required for nucleosome binding and contributes to Spt6 binding. Spt6 preferentially binds H3-H4 tetramers and competes with nucleosomes for binding to Spn1. In contrast to ...

2. Components of Chromatin: - Chromatin is primarily made up of: - DNA: This is the genetic material that carries the instructions for the development and functioning of living organisms. - Histones: These are a type of protein that help in the packaging of DNA. They play a crucial role ...

H1 linker histones are the most abundant chromatin-binding proteins1. In vitro studies indicate that their association with chromatin determines nucleosome spacing and enables arrays of nucleosomes to fold into more compact chromatin structures. However, the in vivo roles of H1 are poorly understood2...
In an eighth aspect, the present invention relates to a modified histone protein wherein the modified histone protein is at least 70% identical to one of the following sequences: SEQ ID NO. 6, or SEQ ID NO. 7. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Embodiments of the invention are further des...
