A rat histone H2B pseudogene is closely associated with the histone H1d gene.
A 9 kb EcoRI restriction fragment was isolated from a recombinant phage out of a rat genomic library. This DNA fragment contains a rat H1d histone gene, its flanking sequences and a H2B histone pseudogene closely associated with the H1d gene. A comparison of the H2B pseudogene with human H2B genes flanking regions reveals sequence homologies to a human H2B histone gene (Albig, W. et al. (1991) Genomics 10, 940-948).
