Gene: RSF1

Alternate names for this Gene: HBXAP|RSF-1|XAP8|p325

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a nuclear protein that interacts with hepatitis B virus X protein (HBX) and facilitates transcription of hepatitis B virus genes by the HBX transcription activator, suggesting a role for this interaction in the virus life cycle. This protein also interacts with SNF2H protein to form the RSF chromatin-remodeling complex, where the SNF2H subunit functions as the nucleosome-dependent ATPase, and this protein as the histone chaperone.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 11

Location in Chromosome : 11q14.1

Description of this Gene: remodeling and spacing factor 1

Type of Gene: protein-coding
