Three amino acids apart, two histones behave differently

November 9, 2026

Phys.org reported in November 2026 that researchers from Kyushu University found H3mm15, a histone H3.3 subvariant differing at only three amino acids, cannot be interchanged with conventional H3.3 and behaves differently in chromatin during spermatogenesis in mice.
