CHD1 chromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 1

Gene ID: 1105, updated on 11-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: CHD-1; PILBOS

Summary

The CHD family of proteins is characterized by the presence of chromo (chromatin organization modifier) domains and SNF2-related helicase/ATPase domains. CHD genes alter gene expression possibly by modification of chromatin structure thus altering access of the transcriptional apparatus to its chromosomal DNA template. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
