Core histone families of mollusca: systematic identification, evolutionary insights, and functional analysis
This study represents the first comprehensive inventory and characterization of core histone genes in molluscs, and will facilitate understanding of the evolutionary patterns and functional properties of core histones in relation to neurogenesis of molluscs. These findings advance our understanding of chromatin evolution and its contribution to phenotypic innovation in non-model taxa.
