H1-5 (Histone H1.5) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a biomarker, and clinical evidence ties its variants to diagnosis, prognosis or drug response. Tied to Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
Histone H1 protein binds to linker DNA between nucleosomes forming the macromolecular structure known as the chromatin fibre. Histones H1 are necessary for the condensation of nucleosome chains into higher-order structured fibres and promote formation of the H3K27me3 mark by the PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex. Also acts as a regulator of individual gene transcription through chromatin remodeling, nucleosome spacing and DNA methylation.
CIViC holds 1 clinical evidence item and 0 assertions across 1 variant.

No product in this corpus aims at H1-5 yet. Drugs bind the molecule precisely: to switch it off, flag the cell for the immune system, or deliver a payload.
Specificity not established: no corpus medicine is aimed at it and the catalogues give it only the role biomarker; HPA finds the RNA group enriched, which says where the protein sits but not whether the tumour differs from normal tissue. HPA H1-5: RNA group enriched (bone marrow 7 nTPM, lymphoid tissue 2 nTPM); blood lineage group enriched (B-cells 10 nTPM, dendritic cells 12 nTPM, T-cells 3 nTPM); high antibody staining in 24 normal tissues; highest cancer staining endometrial cancer (11 of 11 high). Distribution: 1 cancer family in the corpus carries a prevalence row, label threshold or catalogue link for it (Lymphoma); Open Targets associates it with 0 specific cancer types at or above 0.5. (No rule of scripts/fetch-target-specificity.ts fired.)
