Histones undergo several post-translational modifications, including acetylation, phosphorylation, methylation and ubiquitination. Histone H3 plays an important role in regulating chromatin organization and hetero-chromatization, which is critical for controlling gene expression and silencing, and represents a potential target for cancer chemotherapy. Histone H3 is phosphorylated on serine 10 by several kinases in the Aurora kinase family. Phosphorylation of Histone H3 is implicated in transcriptional activation, chromosome condensation, and segregation. Phosphorylation of Histone H3 at Ser10 is also essential for EGF-included neoplastic cell transformation.
