About This Section
| Entrez Gene summary for H2BFWT: Histones are basic nuclear proteins that are responsible for the nucleosome structure of the chromosomal fiber ineukaryotes. Two molecules of each of the four core histones (H2A, H2B, H3, and H4) form an octamer, around whichapproximately 146 bp of DNA is wrapped in repeating units, called nucleosomes. The linker histone, H1, interacts withlinker DNA between nucleosomes and functions in the compaction of chromatin into higher order structures. This geneencodes a member of the H2B histone family that is specifically expressed in sperm nuclei. A polymorphism in the 5'UTR of this gene is associated with male infertility.(provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010) UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: H2BWT_HUMAN, Q7Z2G1Function: Atypical histone H2B. Nucleosomes containing it are structurally and dynamically indistinguishable from thosecontaining conventional H2B. However, unlike conventional H2B, does not recruit chromosome condensation factors anddoes not participate in the assembly of mitotic chromosomes. May be important for telomere function

| UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: H2BWT_HUMAN, Q7Z2G1 (See
protein sequence)Recommended Name: Histone H2B type W-T Size: 175 amino acids; 19618 Da
Subunit: The nucleosome is a histone octamer containing two molecules each of H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 assembled in oneH3-H4 heterotetramer and two H2A-H2B heterodimers. The octamer wraps approximately 147 bp of DNA
Subcellular location: Nucleus membrane. Chromosome
Miscellaneous: In contrast to other H2B histones, it does not contain the conserved residue in C-terminus that is thetarget of monoubiquitination
Miscellaneous: Ortholog in primates, but not in rodents
