Histone chaperone ASF1B is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ASF1B gene.[3][4][5]

Function

This gene encodes a member of the H3/H4 family of histone chaperone proteins and is similar to the anti-silencing function-1 gene in yeast. The encoded protein is the substrate of the tousled-like kinase family of cell cycle-regulated kinases, and may play a key role in modulating the nucleosome structure of chromatin by ensuring a constant supply of histones at sites of nucleosome assembly.[5]

Interactions

ASF1B has been shown to interact with TLK2,[4][6] CHAF1B,[3][6] TLK1[4][6] and CHAF1A.[3][6]
