H1FX Products

Histones are nuclear proteins that are responsible for the nucleosome structure of the chromosomal fiber as they play a critical role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication, and chromosomal stability. The H1FX gene encodes a H1 Histone family, member X protein that is 213 amino acids long at 22 kDA. H1 Histones are critical for condensation of nucleosome chains into higher-order structures. H1FX participates in PKA signaling, Granzyme-A pathway, histone modification, and cell cycle start of DNA replication in early S phase. H1FX is known to interact with XBP1, TOP1, RRP1B, NPM1, and DOT1L. The H1FX gene was associated with treacher collins syndrome and metastasis efficiency.
