Histone modifications. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) occur in the N- or C- terminal tails of histones protruded from the octamer core wrapped by DNA. Histone PTMs are reversible through action of corresponding modifying and de-modifying enzymes. Shown are four best-characterized histone PTMs controlling functional states of chromatin.
