Abstract

Histone 2B in mouse and man can be modified by the post-translational addition of ubiquitin. In mouse L1210 cells, both H2B variants are modified, however only to the extent of 1-1.5% compared with about 11% of H2A. Analysis of cyanogen bromide peptides shows that ubiquitin is attached to the C-terminal part of the histone.
