Histone modifications (WP2369)

Homo sapiens

Histones can undergo many post-translational modifications that are involved in transcription regulation. This pathway provides an overview of various modifications for histones H3 and H4 and the enzymes that catalyze the modifications, where known. Proteins on this pathway have targeted assays available via the [https://assays.cancer.gov/available_assays?wp_id=WP2369 CPTAC Assay Portal]
