Summary
H1-2 (H1.2 linker histone, cluster member, HGNC:4716) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 6p22.2, encoding Histone H1.2 (P16403). Histone H1 protein binds to linker DNA between nucleosomes forming the macromolecular structure known as the chromatin fiber. It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 12.4% of cell lines).
Histones are basic nuclear proteins responsible for nucleosome structure of the chromosomal fiber in eukaryotes. Two molecules of each of the four core histones (H2A, H2B, H3, and H4) form an octamer, around which approximately 146 bp of DNA is wrapped in repeating units, called nucleosomes. The linker histone, H1, interacts with linker DNA between nucleosomes and functions in the compaction of chromatin into higher order structures. This gene is intronless and encodes a replication-dependent histone that is a member of the histone H1 family. Transcripts from this gene lack polyA tails but instead contain a palindromic termination element. This gene is found in the large histone gene cluster on chromosome 6.

Function. Histone H1 protein binds to linker DNA between nucleosomes forming the macromolecular structure known as the chromatin fiber. Histone H1-2 is required for the condensation of nucleosome chains into higher-order structured fibers. Compared to other histone H1 variants, H1-2 plays an essnetial role in nucleosome condensation: its absence leads to global chromatin decompaction, which is not observed when depleting other histone H1 variants. Histone H1-2 also acts as a histone reader: specifically recognizes and binds histone H3 trimethylated at ’lys-27’ (H3K27me3). Histones H1 also promote formation of the H3K27me3 mark by the PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex, possibly by facilitating restoration of H3K27me3 post-replication. Together with histone H1-3, histone H1-2 acts as a regulator of splicing, most specifically exon skipping and intron retention events: histone H1-2 has a high affinity for exons and regulates splicing by affecting RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) elongation. Also acts as a regulator of individual gene transcription through chromatin remodeling, nucleosome spacing and DNA methylation.
Subunit / interactions. Associates with nucleosomes, promoting condensation into higher-order structured chromatin. Interacts with TSC22D1 isoforms 2 and 5.
Subcellular location. Nucleus. Nucleolus. Chromosome.
Post-translational modifications. Deamidation of Asn-76 and Asn-77 by CTPS1 in response to DNA damage promotes subsequent acetylation of histo75 (H1K75ac). Acetylated at Lys-75 (H1K75ac) by EP300 following deamidation of Asn-76 and Asn-77 by CTPS1 in response to DNA damage, thereby increasing chromatin accessibility to facilitate the recruitment of DNA repair proteins. H1 histones are progressively phosphorylated during the cell cycle, becoming maximally phosphorylated during late G2 phase and M phase, and being dephosphorylated sharply thereafter. Phosphorylation at Thr-165 is associated with condensed chromosomes, with maximum levels occurring at metaphase and drastically dropping down at later mitotic phases. During interphase, phosphorylation at Thr-165 is enriched within nucleoli. Crotonylation (Kcr) is specifically present in male germ cells and marks testis-specific genes in post-meiotic cells, including X-linked genes that escape sex chromosome inactivation in haploid cells. Crotonylation marks active promoters and enhancers and confers resistance to transcriptional repressors. It is also associated with post-meiotically activated genes on autosomes. Citrullination at Arg-54 (H1R54ci) by PADI4 takes place within the DNA-binding site of H1 and results in its displacement from chromatin and global chromatin decondensation, thereby promoting pluripotency and stem cell maintenance. ADP-ribosylated on Ser-188 in response to DNA damage.
Domain organisation. The C-terminal domain is required for high-affinity binding to chromatin.
Induction. Expression is activated by transcription factor CRAMP1, in collaboration with NPAT and GON4L.
Similarity. Belongs to the histone H1/H5 family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 219 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
