NCIt synonyms : LOC391769; Histone Cluster 2, H3c Pseudogene Gene; H3.Y.1; H3.Y; H3.Y Histone 1 wt Allele; H3 Histone, Family 3B (H3.3B) Pseudogene Gene;
NCIt definition : Human H3Y1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 5p15.1 and is approximately
0.9 kb in length. This allele, which encodes histone H3.Y protein, may play a role
in the chromatin structure and transcriptional regulation.;
NCIt note : J Cell Biol. 2010;190:777-91 reports the primate-specific expression of a histone
H3.Y protein in fetal brain, cerebral cortex, cerebellum and hippocampus. H3.Y was
also reported to be expressed in cancerous bone, breast and lung tissue.;
