Asf1a anti-silencing function 1A histone chaperone [Rattus norvegicus (Norway rat)] - Gene

Summary

Official Symbol: Asf1aprovided by RGD
Official Full Name: anti-silencing function 1A histone chaperoneprovided by RGD
Primary source: RGD:1311941
See related: AllianceGenome:RGD:1311941
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: VALIDATED
Organism: Rattus norvegicus
Lineage: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Glires; Rodentia; Myomorpha; Muroidea; Muridae; Murinae; Rattus
Summary: Predicted to enable chromatin binding activity; histone binding activity; and histone chaperone activity. Predicted to be involved in DNA repair-dependent chromatin remodeling; DNA replication-dependent chromatin assembly; and replication fork processing. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including DNA repair; nucleosome assembly; and osteoblast differentiation. Predicted to be located in chromatin and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus and site of double-strand break. Orthologous to human ASF1A (anti-silencing function 1A histone chaperone).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
