BRD1 bromodomain containing 1

Gene ID: 23774, updated on 28-Oct-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: BRL; BRPF1; BRPF2

Summary

This gene encodes a bromodomain-containing protein that localizes to the nucleus and can interact with DNA and histone tails. The encoded protein is a component of the MOZ/MORF acetyltransferase complex and can stimulate acetylation of histones H3 and H4, thereby potentially playing a role in gene activation. Variation in this gene is associated with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder in some study populations. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2017]
