The product of this gene belongs to the SNF2/RAD54 helicase family. It represents the main component of the nucleosome remodeling and deacetylase complex and plays an important role in epigenetic transcriptional repression. Patients with dermatomyositis develop antibodies against this protein. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Function:
Component of the histone deacetylase NuRD complex which participates in the remodeling of chromatin by deacetylating histones.
Subcellular Location:
Nucleus. Cytoplasm > cytoskeleton > centrosome. Associates with centrosomes in interphase.
Post-translational modifications:
Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR.
Similarity:
Belongs to the SNF2/RAD54 helicase family.
Contains 2 chromo domains.
Contains 1 helicase ATP-binding domain.
Contains 1 helicase SLCterminal domain.
Contains 2 PHD-type zinc fingers.
