Background Information
Histone H4 is a 103 amino acid protein, which belongs to the histone H4 family. Histone H4 localizes in the nucleus and is a 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. Acetylation of histone H4 is necessary for chromatin decompaction during DNA replication.
