Disease relevance of ACTL6B

 

High impact information on ACTL6B

  • These findings suggest that SWI/SNF complex containing ArpN alpha might regulate certain genes involved in brain development and/or its function differently from SWI/SNF complex containing ArpN beta/BAF53 [1].
  • The brain-specific actin-related protein ArpN alpha interacts with the transcriptional co-repressor CtBP [1].
  • No difference was observed between ArpNalpha and beta in subcellular localization and interaction with BRM, which is an ATPase subunit of mammalian SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex [2].
  • ArpNalpha is the first brain-specific component of a chromatin remodeling complex to be identified, suggesting that ArpNalpha has conserved and important roles in the differentiation of neural cells through regulation of chromatin structure [2].
