<div>In order for [[DNA|DNA ]]to be packaged tightly enough to fit into a [[Chromosome|chromosome]], it wraps around [[Proteins|proteins ]]called Histones, located in the nucleus of a [[Cell|cell]]<ref>http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Histone</ref>. <br />
<br />
Histones can be organized into six classes: <br />
<br />
1.H1 <br />
<br />
2.H2A <br />
<br />
3.H2B <br />
<br />
4.H3 <br />
<br />
5.H4 <br />
<br />
6. Archael <br />
<br />
Witout histones, [[DNA|DNA ]]would be too long to fit within the nucleus. <br />
<br />
Some other functions of histones include acetlyation, methylation, ubiquitination, and phosphorylation<ref>http://www.iscid.org/encyclopedia/Histones</ref>. <br />
