Why this annotation

All 9 genes are canonical histones: H1-2, H1-3, H1-4, H1-10 are linker histone H1 variants; H2BC4, H2BC15 are histone H2B; H2AC8, H2AC6 are histone H2A; H4C3 is histone H4. These are replication-coupled core and linker histones expressed during S-phase. The complete absence of any disease response signal (all deltas = 0.000) and uniform expression suggest a cell-cycle S-phase housekeeping program. Neighbors M37 and M47 also contain histones, confirming a chromatin gene neighborhood.
