<h4>Background</h4>There is general agreement that large numbers of histone H1 are necessary for maintenance of the higher order structure of chromatin in higher eukaryotes. The chicken H1 gene family comprises six members per haploid genome, the total copy number being 12, and they encode six H1 variants which are considerably different from each other in amino acid sequence. We recently established that in two chicken DT40 mutants (1/2delta110kb and delta57kb), which lack, respectively, one al ...[more]
