Description

H2AC13 (H2A clustered histone 13) is a member of the histone H2A family, located within the histone cluster 1 on chromosome 6. It encodes a replication-dependent histone that is a core component of the nucleosome. Histone H2A plays a central role in chromatin structure, DNA packaging, and regulation of gene expression through post-translational modifications.

Protein Summary

H2AC13 encodes histone H2A type 1-J, a 129-amino acid core histone protein. It contains a conserved histone fold domain that mediates dimerization with histone H2B and assembly into nucleosomes. Post-translational modifications include acetylation, methylation, and ubiquitination, which regulate chromatin dynamics and gene expression.
