Summary
Predicted to enable nucleosome binding activity. Involved in nematode pharynx development; positive regulation of chromosome segregation; and regulation of embryonic development. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including intestine. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in neurodevelopmental disorder with dysmorphic facies and thin corpus callosum. Orthologous to human SUPT16H (SPT16 homolog, facilitates chromatin remodeling subunit). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
