From: Histone modifications during the life cycle of the brown alga Ectocarpus
a Post-translational modifications of Ectocarpus histones. Acetylation, methylation, ubiquitylation and propionylation modifications of core and variant histones identified in this study. Coloured boxes indicate globular core domains, and grey boxes indicate N- and C-terminal tails. Amino acid positions are indicated below the protein sequence. Asterisks indicate histone modifications that were only detected using antibodies. All other modifications were detected by mass spectrometry. b Comparison of the histone PTMs detected in Ectocarpus with PTMs reported for diatoms (combined data for Phaeodactylum tricornutum and Thalassiosira pseudonana, upper panel) and for humans and the land plant Arabidopsis (lower panel) (see Additional file 5: Table S3 for details)
