Official Full Name: vacuolar protein sorting 72 homolog<br />Also known as: YL1; CFL1; Swc2; YL-1; TCFL1<br />The protein encoded by this gene is a shared subunit of two multicomponent complexes, the histone acetyltransferase complex TRRAP/TIP60, and the chromatin-remodeling SRCAP-containing complex. The TRRAP/TIP60 complex acetylates nucleosomal histones and is critical for transcriptional regulation, double-strand DNA break repair, and apoptosis. The srcap-containing complex catalyzes the exchange of histone H2A with histone variant Htz1 (H2AFZ) into the nucleosome. This protein may be responsible for binding H2AFZ, which plays a role in chromosome segregation. This protein may also play a role in regulating the long-term activity of blood stem cells. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different protein isoforms.
