Facts about Histone H3.3.
Deposited at websites of nucleosomal displacement throughout transcribed genes, suggesting that it represents an epigenetic imprint of transcriptionally active chromatin. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, restricting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template.
