Role of extrachromosomal histone H2B on recognition of DNA viruses and cell damage

Histones are essential components of chromatin structure, and histone modification plays an important role in various cellular functions including transcription, gene silencing and immunity. Histones also play distinct roles in extrachromosomal settings. Extrachromosomal histone H2B acts as a cytoso...
