Gene Information

General description

H2BUb1, also known as Histone H2B.1 A, or Histone H2B.a (H2B/a), or Histone H2B.g (H2B/g), or Histone H2B.h (H2B/h), or Histone H2B.k (H2B/k) or Histone H2B.i (H2B/I;H2B/I), and encoded by the gene HIST1H2BC or HIST1H2BE, HIST1H2BF, HIST1H2BG, HIST1H2BI/H2BFL, H2BFH, H2BFG, H2BFA, H2BFK, is a core component of the nucleosome. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called histone code, and nucleosome remodeling. H2BUb1 also has broad antibacterial activity and may contribute to the formation of the functional antimicrobial barrier of the colonic epithelium, and to the bactericidal activity of amniotic fluid. H2BUb1 is localized to the nucleus and chromosomes in healthy cells.

Western Blotting Analysis: A representative lot detected monoubiquityl Histone H2B (Lys119) in hormone deprived MCF7 cell lysates, which were pretreated with vehicle (ethanol) or Bortezomid before incubating with 17Beta-Estradiol (Prenzel, T., et al. (2011). AACR. OF1-OF15).
Western Blotting Analysis: A representative lot detected monoubiquityl Histone H2B (Lys119) in differentiated hMSCs that were truncated with control and demostrated a loss of signal in differntiated hMSCs that ere transfected with RNF50 siRNA (Karpiuk, O., et al. (2012). Molecular Cell. 46:705-713).

Deregulated monoubiquitination of histone H2B (H2Bub1), mainly catalyzed by E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase RNF20/RNF40 complex, may play an important role in cancer. Here we investigate potential roles of H2Bub1 and the underlying mechanisms through which it contributes to cancer development and

The ubiquitin ligase RNF8 promotes the DNA damage response (DDR). We observed that the expression of RNF8 was increased in bladder cancer cells and that this change in RNF8 expression could be reversed by adenovirus-mediated shRNA treatment. Moreover, we found

Loss of monoubiquitination of histone H2B (H2Bub1) was found to be associated with poor differentiation, cancer stemness, and enhanced malignancy of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Herein, we investigated the biological significance and therapeutic implications of ubiquitin-specific protease 22 (USP22)
