/ H3 / Variant: TS H3.4

Description

Testis spesific mamal H3 variant.
Alternate names: H3.1t

Features

Below, you can explore the features of TS H3.4 from Homo sapiens, if available and how it compares to the canonical histones of the same type (first row). Canonical histone is shown in the first row, the names and descriptions of each feature can be found underneath. To explore variants from other species, please browse our curated sequences, automatically extracted sequences, or by taxonomy.

Keys: red - identical residues, blue - different residues (if more than one sequence).
General histone type features
