H2AFX

Histones are basic nuclear proteins that are responsible for the nucleosome structure of the chromosomal fiber in eukaryotes. Two molecules of each of the four core histones (H2A, H2B, H3, and H4) form an octamer, around which approximately 146 bp of DNA is wrapped in repeating units, called nucleosomes. The linker histone, H1, interacts with linker DNA between nucleosomes and functions in the compaction of chromatin into higher order structures. This gene encodes a replication-independent histone that is a member of the histone H2A family, and generates two transcripts through the use of the conserved stem-loop termination motif, and the polyA addition motif.

Interaction

The nucleosome is a histone octamer containing two molecules each of H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 assembled in one H3-H4 heterotetramer and two H2A-H2B heterodimers. The octamer wraps approximately 147 bp of DNA (Probable). Interacts with numerous proteins required for DNA damage signaling and repair when phosphorylated on Ser-140 (PubMed:12419185, PubMed:12607005, PubMed:15201865). These include MDC1, TP53BP1, BRCA1 and the MRN complex, composed of MRE11, RAD50, and NBN (PubMed:12419185, PubMed:12607005, PubMed:15201865). Interaction with the MRN complex is mediated at least in part by NBN (PubMed:12419185). Also interacts with DHX9/NDHII when phosphorylated on Ser-140 and MCPH1 when phosphorylated at Ser-140 or Tyr-143 (PubMed:15613478). Interacts with ARRB2; the interaction is detected in the nucleus upon OR1D2 stimulation (PubMed:16820410). Interacts with WRAP53/TCAB1 (PubMed:26734725, PubMed:27715493). Interacts with HDGFL2 (PubMed:26721387). (Microbial infection) Interacts with Epstein-Barr virus protein EBNA6.
