Also known as
HIST2H2BB
Summary
Histones are basic nuclear proteins responsible for nucleosome structure of the chromosomal fiber in eukaryotes. Two molecules of each of the four core histones (H2A, H2B, H3, and H4) form an octamer, around which approximately 146 bp of DNA is wrapped in repeating units, called nucleosomes. The linker histone, H1, interacts with linker DNA between nucleosomes and functions in the compaction of chromatin into higher order structures. This gene is a histone pseudogene found on chromosome 1. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]
Annotation information
Note: HIST2H2BB (GeneID: 338391) was incorrectly annotated at chr1: NC_000001.10:120905664..120906800(+) on NCBI's Build 37.3. Its correct location is chr1: NC_000001.11: 143846902.. 143904650(-). [06 Mar 2019]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
