The histone proteins defining nucleosome structure are highly conserved in common model
organisms and are frequently portrayed as uniform chromatin building blocks. We surveyed
over 1700 complete eukaryotic genomes and confirm that almost all encode recognisable
canonical core histones. Nevertheless, divergent eukaryotes show unrecognised diversity in
histone sequences and offer an opportunity to observe the potential for nucleosome
variation. Recombinant his...
