RT "Core histone-DNA interactions in sea urchin sperm chromatin. The N-
RT terminal tail of H2B interacts with linker DNA.";
RL Eur. J. Biochem. 187:145-153(1990).
CC -!- FUNCTION: Core component of nucleosome. Nucleosomes wrap and compact
CC DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular
CC machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a
CC central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication
CC and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex
CC set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called
CC histone code, and nucleosome remodeling.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: The nucleosome is a histone octamer containing two molecules
CC each of H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 assembled in one H3-H4 heterotetramer and
CC two H2A-H2B heterodimers. The octamer wraps approximately 147 bp of
CC DNA.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. Chromosome.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Contains 4 SPKK motifs which may interact with the minor groove
CC of A/T-rich DNA sites. Phosphorylation of this motif may regulate DNA
CC binding. This motif is reiterated in both termini of histone H1 and in
CC the C-terminus of plant H2A, but its presence in the N-terminus seems
CC to be unique to sea urchin histones H2B.
CC -!- PTM: Monoubiquitination gives a specific tag for epigenetic
CC transcriptional activation and is also prerequisite for histone H3
CC 'Lys-4' and 'Lys-79' methylation. {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- PTM: Phosphorylated on SPKK motifs 3 and 4; which may regulate DNA
CC binding. Dephosphorylated during maturation of spermatids to mature
CC sperm and rephosphorylated at fertilization (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the histone H2B family. {ECO:0000305}.
