PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
STRUCTURE
motifs/domains
  • two bromodomain, AT-HOOK motif next the bromodomain
  • HOMOLOGY
    interspecies homolog to murine Cecr2
    Homologene
    FAMILY
  • bromodomain family
  • CATEGORY transcription factor
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     intracellular
    intracellular,nucleus
    basic FUNCTION
  • may be involved through its interaction with LRPPRC in the integration of cytoskeletal network with
  • vesicular trafficking, nucleocytosolic shuttling, transcription, chromosome remodeling and cytokinesis
  • involved in the neurulation and chromatin remodeling
  • role of CECR2 in neurulation and inner ear development
  • novel role of CECR2-containing complexes in spermatogenesis and CECR2 interacts predominantly with SMARCA5 instead of SMARCA1 in the testis
  • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide, transcription
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • complexing with SNF2L to form a chromatin remodeling complex (complex CERF or CECR2- containing remodeling factor)
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • is a binding partner of SMARCA1 and is involved in neural tube closure and inner ear development
  • CECR2 contributes to spermatogenesis and forms a complex that includes the other ISWI ATPase SMARCA5 in the testis
  • cell & other

    ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • loss of Cecr2, which encodes a chromatin remodeling protein, has been associated with the neural tube defect (NTD) exencephaly and open eyelids in mice
