Chromosomal Proteins, Non-Histone MeSH Descriptor Data 2025


MeSH Heading
Chromosomal Proteins, Non-Histone
Tree Number(s)
D12.776.660.235
D12.776.664.235
Unique ID
D002868
RDF Unique Identifier

Scope Note
Nucleoproteins, which in contrast to HISTONES, are acid insoluble. They are involved in chromosomal functions; e.g. they bind selectively to DNA, stimulate transcription resulting in tissue-specific RNA synthesis and undergo specific changes in response to various hormones or phytomitogens.
