  1. Includes PTMs identified on any isoform except those with modified, non-conserved amino acid residues (H1t, H2AV, H2AZ, tH2B). Underlined PTMs do not appear in the subsequent cell stage, and italicized PTMs were not present in the previous cell stage
  2. aR5 is present only on the H2B3A isoform
  3. bS4 is present only on H2B3B isoform
  4. cPresent only on H1.0 isoform
