histone H4

General Information (Source: NCBI Gene,UniProt)

Text mining Term	histone H4
UniProt ID	H4_LOLTE
Name	Histone H4
Gene Names
Taxonomy	Lolium temulentum

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.
Subcellular location	Nucleus (By similarity). Chromosome (By similarity).
