    Question: Which of the following histones is lysine-rich?

    Options:

    H1
    H3
    H4
    Both H1 and H3

    ✅Explanation:
    -Out of the listed histones, only H1 is considered "lysine-rich". It has a high percentage of lysine and arginine residues, which contribute to its positive charge and allow it to bind to the negatively charged DNA backbone.

    • Here's the breakdown for the 📌📌 Other options Explanation:
    -H3 and H4 are primarily arginine-rich. They are crucial for forming the core structure of the nucleosome (the building block of chromatin).
    -While both H2A and H2B contain some lysine, 

    🔴 Related Terminology:
    -Histones: Proteins that package DNA into chromatin within eukaryotic cells.
