    basic FUNCTION
  • mediating the assembly of core histones and DNA into periodic nucleosomes in cooperation with NAP1Lx
  • may be involved in the formation or maintenance of heterochromatin playing a critical role in developmental control
  • BAZ1A and SMARCA5, accumulate rapidly at DNA double-strand breaks and are required for DSB repair
  • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide, transcription, regulation
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • of chromatin remodeling complexes CHRAC, WCRF, SNF2H
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • interacts directly with XRCC6 and is required for the accumulation of XRCC proteins at DNA double-strand breaks
  • CEBPB directly interacts with BAZ1A
  • functional interaction between CEBPB and SMARCA5/BAZ1A, characterized mainly by suppression of CEBPB transactivation activity in the presence of SMARCA5 and BAZ1A
  • BAZ1A and BAZ1B each recruit SMARCA5 to sites of damaged chromatin and promote survival
