ATPase histone chaperone abo1

UniProtKB accession:  O14114

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  ATPase histone chaperone which facilitates loading of histone H3-H4 onto DNA in an ATP-dependent manner (PubMed:31848341, PubMed:33658433). Plays a genome-wide role in nucleosome organization and establishment of chromatin (PubMed:26582768, PubMed:31848341). Also plays a role in heterochromatin assembly by stabilizing recruitment of the histone methyltransferase clr4 to methylated histone H3, to promote the transition from H3K9me2 to H3K9me3 (PubMed:32269268).
