The lack of a consistent naming convention for histone variants has led to much confusion for histone researchers in recent years, and has also led to problems concerning the similarity of names and incorrect attributions of orthology or common function. Faced with this challenge, attendees of the EMBO Workshop on Histone Variants held last year have developed consistent but flexible naming rules that are both informative and database-searchable. The comprehensive review, published in BioMed Central’s open access journal Epigenetics & Chromatin, proposes a new, unified, phylogeny-based nomenclature for histone variants.
