Summary |
The selective incorporation of appropriate histone variants into chromatin is critical for the regulation of genome function. Although many histone variants have been identified, a complete list has not been compiled. We screened human and mouse genomes by in silico hybridization using canonical histone sequences, and found 14 uncharacterized H3-related genes in mouse. Most were similar to the H3.3 variant; their 3′ untranslated regions lacked a stem-loop structure but did have a poly- adenylation signal. Transcriptome analysis revealed tissue-specific expression of these variants. When expressed as GFP-tagged versions in mouse C2C12 cells, some variants were stably incorporated into chromatin and the genome distributions of most variants were similar to that of H3.3. Over-expression of some variants altered gene expression patterns in differentiated C2C12 cells, suggesting that these new H3 variants have specific and distinct functions.
