Histones are the primary protein component of chromatin and are involved in virtually all DNA-templated processes. Histones are abundantly post-translationally modified by a variety of chromatin-modifying machinery. These post-translational modifications (PTMs) are recognized by a range of "reader" proteins, which

Histone proteins are the major protein components of chromatin, the physiologically relevant form of the genome (or epigenome) in all eukaryotic cells. Chromatin is the substrate of many biological processes, such as gene regulation and transcription, replication, mitosis and apoptosis.
