Chromosome | 8 | NCBI Gene Number | 66929 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables histone binding activity and histone chaperone activity. Acts upstream of or within blastocyst hatching and nucleosome assembly. Located in chromatin. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; cranium; ear; genitourinary system; and retina. Orthologous to human ASF1B (anti-silencing function 1B histone chaperone). PHENOTYPE: Mutant mice are viable and fertile and exhibit no overt abnormal phenotype. [provided by MGI curators] |
