DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called histone code, and nucleosome remodeling. (126 aa) |
| | H3C11 | H3 clustered histone 11. (136 aa) |
| | H2BC3 | Histone H2B type 1-B; 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. (126 aa) |
| | H2AB3 | H2A.B variant histone 3. (115 aa) |
| | H2BS1 | Histone H2B type F-S; 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. (126 aa) |
| | H4C9 | H4 clustered histone 9. (103 aa) |
| | H4C13 | H4 clustered histone 13. (103 aa) |
| | SETSIP | Protein SETSIP; Plays a role as a transcriptional activator involved in the early stage of somatic cell reprogramming. Promotes the differentiation of protein-induced pluripotent stem (PiPS) cells into endothelial cells and the formation of vascular-like tubes (in vitro). Involved in the transcription induction of vascular endothelial-cadherin (VE-cadherin) expression. Associates to the VE-cadherin gene promoter. (302 aa) |
| | H3C1 | H3 clustered histone 1. (136 aa) |
| | H4C12 | H4 clustered histone 12. (103 aa) |
