Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Histone H4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HIST1H4F gene.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.
