background:
This gene was identified by the reactivity of its encoded protein to a monoclonal antibody prepared against brain homogenates from patients with Alzheimer's disease. Analysis of the original protein (fetal Alz-50 reactive clone 1, or FAC1), identified as an 810 aa protein containing a DNA-binding domain and a zinc finger motif, suggested it might play a role in the regulation of transcription. High levels of FAC1 were detected in fetal brain and in patients with neurodegenerative diseases. The protein encoded by this gene is actually much larger than originally thought, and it also contains a SLCterminal bromodomain characteristic of proteins that regulate transcription during proliferation. The encoded protein is highly similar to the largest subunit of the Drosophila NURF (nucleosome remodeling factor) complex. In Drosophila, the NURF complex, which catalyzes nucleosome sliding on DNA and interacts with sequence-specific transcription factors, is necessary for the chromatin remodeling required for transcription. Two alternative transcripts encoding different isoforms have been described completely. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Function:
Histone-binding component of NURF (nucleosome-remodeling factor), a complex which catalyzes ATP-dependent nucleosome sliding and facilitates transcription of chromatin. Specifically recognizes H3 tails trimethylated on 'Lys-4' (H3K4me3), which mark transcription start sites of virtually all active genes. May also regulate transcription through direct binding to DNA or transcription factors.

Subunit:
Interacts with MAZ. Interacts with KEAP1. Part of the nucleosome-remodeling factor (NURF) complex which consists of SMARCA1; BPTF; RBBP4 and RBBP7. Interacts with histone H3K4me3 and to a lesser extent with histone H3-K4Me2.

Subcellular Location:
Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Note=In brains of Alzheimer disease patients, present in a subset of amyloid-containing plaques.

Tissue Specificity:
Ubiquitously expressed, with highest levels in testis. Present in kidney, liver and brain. In the brain, highest levels are found in motor cortex (at protein level).

Post-translational modifications:
Phosphorylation enhances DNA-binding. Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR.
Highly susceptible to proteolysis.

Similarity:
Belongs to the PBTF family.
Contains 1 bromo domain.
Contains 1 DDT domain.
Contains 2 PHD-type zinc fingers.
