Difference between H2AFY and X-inactivation

H2AFY vs. X-inactivation

Core histone macro-H2A.1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the H2AFY gene. X-inactivation (also called lyonization) is a process by which one of the copies of the X chromosome present in female mammals is inactivated.

Similarities between H2AFY and X-inactivation

H2AFY and X-inactivation have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): DNA, Gene, Histone, Nucleosome, Transcription (biology).

DNA

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a thread-like chain of nucleotides carrying the genetic instructions used in the growth, development, functioning and reproduction of all known living organisms and many viruses.

Gene

In biology, a gene is a sequence of DNA or RNA that codes for a molecule that has a function.

Histone

In biology, histones are highly alkaline proteins found in eukaryotic cell nuclei that package and order the DNA into structural units called nucleosomes.

Nucleosome

A nucleosome is a basic unit of DNA packaging in eukaryotes, consisting of a segment of DNA wound in sequence around eight histone protein cores.

Transcription (biology)

Transcription is the first step of gene expression, in which a particular segment of DNA is copied into RNA (especially mRNA) by the enzyme RNA polymerase.

H2AFY and X-inactivation Comparison

H2AFY has 12 relations, while X-inactivation has 84. As they have in common 5, the Jaccard index is 5.21% = 5 / (12 + 84).
