The Decamer bind H2A-H2B dimers and H3-H4 tetramers simultaneously, In the absence of histone tetramers the pentamer binds H2A-H2B and formes central hub. When H3-H4 tetramers are recruited this results in a functional dimerization of the complex, and the decamer being formed. | The Decamer bind H2A-H2B dimers and H3-H4 tetramers simultaneously, In the absence of histone tetramers the pentamer binds H2A-H2B and formes central hub.

The loop in the core domain of Xenopus NP is not highly conserved, [[Image:1k5j.png | thumb | Xenopus]] | |||
while the core domain in human is more conserved compared to Xenopus. [[Image:3T30.png | thumb | Human]] | |||

The general structure remain similiar, even with changes in amino acids in the core domains between the two species. That can point to the fact they have similar roles as a molecular chaperone in Human and Xenopus. | |||
