Meiotic sex chromosome inactivation (2007, unknown): “2) (Hoyer-Fender et al., 2000) and H2AZ (H2A histone family, member Z; also known as H2AFZ – Mouse Genome Informatics) (Table 1) (Greaves et al., 2006).”
X-inactivation, imprinting, and long noncoding RNAs in health and disease. (2013, background): “This ''postmeiotic sex chromatin'' (PMSC) is decorated by distinct heterochromatic signatures (Greaves et al., 2006; Namekawa et al., 2006; Turner et al., 2006) and is consistent with the hypothesis that the germlineinactivated X may be passed onto the next generation at least in a partially…”
Staged developmental mapping and X chromosome transcriptional dynamics during mouse spermatogenesis (2018, background): “Multiple variants of H3 and H2A are expressed in spermatocytes (Greaves et al., 2006; Mahadevaiah et al., 2001; Tang et al., 2015), and our data showed that many of these histones are highly expressed in early round spermatids.”
