ELP4 elongator acetyltransferase complex subunit 4

Gene ID: 26610, updated on 5-Mar-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: AN; AN2; hELP4; PAXNEB; PAX6NEB; C11orf19; dJ68P15A.1

Summary

This gene encodes a component of the six subunit elongator complex, a histone acetyltransferase complex that associates directly with RNA polymerase II during transcriptional elongation. The human gene can partially complement sensitivity phenotypes of yeast ELP4 deletion mutants. This gene has also been associated with Rolandic epilepsy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2013]
