Tissue Specificity | Testis. |
Post Translational Modifications | Proteolytic processing into mature chains is required for histone eviction during spermatogenesis. Transition proteins (TNP1 and TNP2) are required for processing. |
Function | Protamines substitute for histones in the chromatin of sperm during the haploid phase of spermatogenesis. They compact sperm DNA into a highly condensed, stable and inactive complex. |
