Histone H2B combines with Histone H2A to form the H2A-H2B heterodimer. Two H2A/H2B heterodimers interact with an H3/H4 tetramer to form the histone octamer. Histone H2B is also modified by various enzymes and can act as a substrate for them. These modifications have been shown to be important in gene regulation.Protein Sequence:PEPAK SAPAP KKGSK KAVTK AQKKD GKKRK RSRKE SYSIY VYKVL KQVHP DTGIS SKAMG IMNSF VNDIF ERIAG EASRL AHYNK RSTIT SREIQ TAVRL LLPGE LAKHA VSEGT KAVTK YTSSK(Genbank accession number: AAN59961)
