Gene Information

human ... HIRA(7290)

General description

HIRA (TUP1 like enhancer of split protein 1) is a protein localized primarily in the nucleus. It functions as a histone chaparone to preferentially place histone H3.3 on nucleosome. It is broadly expressed in a variety of tissues and is expressed during embryogenesis. Data suggests HIRA plays a part in mechanisms of transcriptional regulation similar to that played by yeast HIR1 and HIR2 together. The HIRA protein has been shown to interact with HIRIP3, HIRIP5, histones H2B and H4, and PAX3. HIRA may play a part in the etiology of the DiGeorge syndrome (DGS), a developmental disorder. The clinical features of this disease include absence or hypoplasia of the thymus and parathyroid glands, cardiovascular malformations, facial dysplasia, a cleft palate and mental retardation.

Specificity

This antibody recognizes HIRA.

Immunogen

Epitope: Unknown
