Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Binds to nucleosomes, regulating chromatin structure and consequently, chromatin-dependent processes such as transcription, DNA replication and DNA repair. Affects both insulin and glucagon levels and modulates the expression of pancreatic genes involved in insulin secretion. Regulates the expression of the glucose transporter SLC2A2 by binding specifically to its promoter region and recruiting PDX1 and additional transcription factors. Regulates the expression of SLC6A9, a glycine transporter which regulates the glycine concentration in synaptic junctions in the central nervous system, by binding to its transcription start site. May play a role in ocular development and astrocyte function (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Subcellular Localization Nucleus {ECO:0000250}.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Expressed at similar levels in mature oocytes and 2-4 cell embryos, but at higher levels in 8-16 cell embryos, morulae and blastocysts. {ECO:0000269PubMed:19393058}.
