The role of cryptic ancestral symmetry in histone folding mechanisms across Eukarya and Archaea.

Histones compact and store DNA in both Eukarya and Archaea, forming heterodimers in Eukarya and homodimers in Archaea. Despite this, the folding mechanism of histones across species remains unclear. Our study addresses this gap by investigating 11 types of histone and histone-like proteins across hu...
