General Information (Source: NCBI Gene,UniProt)

Text mining Term histone H4
UniProt ID Q2UCP9_ASPOR
Name Histone H4
Gene Names
Taxonomy Aspergillus oryzae RIB40

General annotation

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).
