    Results found that NASP expression levels were upregulated in liver tumors. Its down-regulation inhibited liver cells from forming tumors. Also, NASP depletion led to a global decrease of histone H3K9me1 modification associated with newly H3 processing, which occurred directly at the promoters of up-regulated anti-tumor genes BACH2 and RunX1T1.

    NASP antagonize chromatin accessibility through maintaining histone H3K9me1 in hepatocellular carcinoma.

    NASP family Proteins are highly conserved throughout the eukaryotes and posses four TPR motifs. It was likely present in the last common ancestor of eukaryotes possibly representing an important innovation regarding H3/H4 transport mechanism. Different TPR motifs in NASP have evolved at different rates with TPR1/4 evolving faster than TPR2/3.
