Function

edit

This gene encodes a member of the H3/H4 family of histone chaperone proteins and is similar to the anti-silencing function-1 gene in yeast. The encoded protein is the substrate of the tousled-like kinase family of cell cycle-regulated kinases, and may play a key role in modulating the nucleosome structure of chromatin by ensuring a constant supply of histones at sites of nucleosome assembly.[7]

Interactions

edit

ASF1B has been shown to interact with TLK2,[6][8] CHAF1B,[5][8] TLK1[6][8] and CHAF1A.[5][8]
