Study of histone modifications during life cycle of a brown alga, from @BourdareauSimon, Coelho, Cock and co. Mass spec and immunoblotting identify 47 modifications. 8 are mapped using ChIP-seq, with largely stable distribution between generations https://

Histone modifications in the brown alga Ectocarpus include a novel mark, but H3K27Me and some others aren't found. So interesting to learn about diversity in nuclear biology across the eukaryotic tree (web?) of life.
