Structure of a cluster of mouse histone genes

Biochim Biophys Acta. 1996 Apr 10;1306(1):17-22. doi: 10.1016/0167-4781(96)00013-9.

Abstract

The structure of a 25 kilobase region of mouse DNA containing 6 functional histone genes and an H2a pseudogene has been determined. The sequences and levels of expression of the H3 and H2b gene as well as the sequence of the H2a pseudogene have been determined.
