title: The primary structure of histone H4 from the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans.
abstract: 1. The complete amino acid sequence of histone H4 from the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has been established. 2. The polypeptide chain consists of 102 amino acids and has a completely alpha-N-blocked serine at residue 1. 3. The sequence differs from vertebrate H4 in position 73 by substitution of cysteine for threonine. 4. Lysine in position 20 is monomethylated.
