|
Function |
DNA-binding helicase that specifically binds to the promoter of target genes, leading to chromatin remodeling, possibly by promoting deposition of histone H3.3. Involved in myogenesis via interaction with MYOD1: binds to myogenic gene regulatory sequences and mediates incorporation of histone H3.3 prior to the onset of myogenic gene expression, promoting their expression (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.

Subcellular Location |
Nucleus {ECO:0000250}. Note=Binds to myogenic gene promoters. {ECO:0000250}.
