NCIt synonyms : H2ABBD; H2AFB; Histone Variant H2A, Barr-Body Deficient Gene; H2A Histone Family, Member B3 Gene; H2A Histone Family Member B3 Gene; H2A.B Variant Histone 3 wt Allele; H2AFB3;
NCIt definition : Human H2AB3 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of Xq28 and is approximately
1 kb in length. This allele, which encodes histone H2A-Bbd type 2/3 protein, is involved
in the modulation of DNA compaction, which regulates gene transcription and mRNA processing.;
NCIt note : The H2AFB3 gene is identical to the H2AFB2 gene and is 98% identical to the H2AFB1
gene. (OMIM);
