Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - H2A8 is a highly conserved protein with a predicted molecular weight of approximately 130 kDa. - It is found in a variety of cell types, including lymphoid lineage restricted progenitor cells, early pro-B cells, basal cells of the prostate epithelium, epithelial cells of the urethra, germ cells, goblet cells, absorptive cells, kidney proximal convoluted tubule epithelial cells, tuft cells of the colon, and intestinal crypt stem cells of the colon. - H2A8 is a highly dynamic protein that undergoes various post-translational modifications, including phosphorylation, acetylation, and methylation. These modifications can influence the stability, subcellular localization, and activity of H2A8. **Pathways and functions:** - H2A8 is involved in the activation of hox genes during differentiation. - It is a key regulator of cell cycle progression and cellular responses to stimuli and stress. - It plays a role in the regulation of embryonic development, tissue homeostasis, and cancer. - H2A8 is also involved in DNA repair, DNA replication, epigenetic regulation of gene expression, and signal transduction pathways. **Clinical significance:** - Mutations in H2A8 have been linked to various human diseases, including cancer, developmental disorders, and autoimmune diseases. - Targeting H2A8 has emerged as a potential therapeutic strategy for these diseases. **Additional information:** - H2A8 is a highly conserved protein, with a similar sequence in humans, mice, and flies. - It is a well-documented target for cancer immunotherapy. - The overexpression of H2A8 has been shown to promote tumor growth and metastasis in cancer cells.
