Facts about Histone H2AX.
Histones thereby play a central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated by means of a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also known as histone code, and nucleosome remodeling.
