Genome-wide analysis of histidine repeats reveals their role in the localization of human proteins to the nuclear speckles compartment.
Single amino acid repeats are prevalent in eukaryote organisms, although the role of many such sequences is still poorly understood. We have performed a comprehensive analysis of the proteins containing homopolymeric histidine tracts in the human genome and identified 86 human proteins that contain...
