ELP2 elongator acetyltransferase complex subunit 2

Gene ID: 55250, updated on 5-Mar-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: StIP; MRT58; SHINC-2; STATIP1

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a core subunit of the elongator complex, a histone acetyltransferase complex that associates with RNA polymerase II. In addition to histone acetylation, the encoded protein effects transcriptional elongation and may help remodel chromatin. [provided by RefSeq, May 2016]
