SQEL/Y motif of H2AX is phosphorylated by ATM/ATR kinases, activated by DNA damage, is involved in DNA repair
#Id: 416
H2AX phosphorylated at the SQEL/Y motif is sometimes referred to as “gamma-H2AX,”
#Id: 417
Gamma-H2AX frequently functions in DSBR
#Id: 418
H2AZ variant has 60% sequence identity with canonical H2A and involved in gene activation, heterochromatin–euchromatin boundary formation, cell-cycle progression.
#Id: 419
Mammalian macroH2A is enriched in the inactive X chromosome in females, which is assembled into a silent, heterochromatic state
#Id: 420
Mammalian H2ABbd variant is excluded from the inactive X and forms a less stable nucleosome than canonical H2A
