Function
RT109_CANAL Histone chaperone-dependent acetylase that modifies 'Lys-56' of histone H3 (H3K56ac), to promote genomic stability, DNA repair and transcriptional regulation during mitotic S-phase (PubMed:20080646, PubMed:20601951). Plays an important role in the regulation of white-opaque genotoxin induced-switching (PubMed:21749487).[1] [2] [3]
