H4 Protein

Description
Histone H3 combines with Histone H4 to form the H3/H4 tetramer. Two H2A/H2B heterodimers interact with an H3/H4 tetramer to form the histone octamer (1,2). Histone H4 is also modified by various enzymes and can act as a substrate for them. These modifications have been shown to be important in gene regulation.
