Fig. 1: Melbournevirus encodes an H2B-H2A histone variant.

From: Melbournevirus encodes a shorter H2B-H2A doublet histone variant that forms structurally distinct nucleosome structures

Fig. 1

The amino acid sequence of MV-H2B-H2A (mel_369, secondary structure elements taken from pdb 7N8N shown in dark red for H2B, and yellow for H2A) and MV-varH2B-H2A (mel_149, predicted secondary structure elements shown in light red and light yellow for H2B and H2A, respectively). Dark blue highlighted amino acids (aa) are conserved between the two proteins; similar hydrophobic amino acids are shown in light blue (V/I or F/W/Y), and conserved positively charged aa (R/K) are highlighted in green.
