| Name | histone mRNA metabolic process |
| ID | GO_0008334 |
| collection_id | Biological process |
| Exact synonym | histone mRNA metabolism |
| Description | The chemical reactions and pathways involving an mRNA encoding a histone. |
| Comment | In higher Eukaryotes, histone mRNAs (stem-loop containing) are non-polyadenylated and thus have a different form of 3'-end regulation to other mRNAs. In lower Eukaryotes, the 3'-ends of histone mRNAs are polyadenylated. |
