???displayGene.geneFunction???
Variant histone H2A which replaces conventional H2A in a subset of nucleosomes. 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. May be involved in the
AI Protein Function :
:
The h2a gene encodes a histone H2A protein that functions in nucleosome assembly and chromatin organization, involved in DNA packaging within the nucleus.
