In addition to conventional histones, non-allelic variants are also expressed in low amount in eukaryotic cells. Recent data have revealed that histone variants assume roles in various processes within the cell including DNA repair, chromosome segregation and transcriptional control. The aim of my study was to highlight some biological functions harbored by histone variants. My investigations focused on two variants: the uncharacterized H2BFWT, which plays a role in human spermatogenesis and macroH2A1, which has an unclear function in transcriptional silencing.We show that, despite its huge divergence with H2B, the presence of H2BFWT does not affect the overall structure of the nucleosome. Importantly, in contrast to somatic H2B, H2BFWT was...
