Description

H1-10 (also known as HIST1H1E) encodes a member of the histone H1 family, which functions as a linker histone in chromatin. H1 proteins bind to linker DNA between nucleosomes, facilitating higher-order chromatin compaction and regulating gene expression. H1-10 is expressed in various tissues and is implicated in cell cycle control, differentiation, and cancer.

Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Frameshift and nonsense mutations in H1-10 lead to haploinsufficiency, causing Rahman syndrome.

Gain of Function (GOF)

No clear gain-of-function mutations reported.

Dominant Negative (DN)

Some missense variants may act in a dominant-negative manner, but evidence is limited.

Protein Summary

Histone H1.10 is a 219-amino-acid linker histone protein with a central globular domain and unstructured N- and C-terminal tails. It binds to the linker DNA between nucleosomes, promoting chromatin compaction and influencing transcription, replication, and repair. Post-translational modifications (e.g., phosphorylation, acetylation) regulate its dynamic interactions with chromatin.
