Function | Component of the FACT complex, a general chromatin factor that acts to reorganize nucleosomes. The FACT complex is involved in multiple processes that require DNA as a template such as mRNA elongation, DNA replication and DNA repair. During transcription elongation the FACT complex acts as a histone chaperone that both destabilizes and restores nucleosomal structure. It facilitates the passage of RNA polymerase II and transcription by promoting the dissociation of one histone H2A-H2B dimer from the nucleosome, then subsequently promotes the reestablishment of the nucleosome following the passage of RNA polymerase II. The FACT complex is probably also involved in phosphorylation of 'Ser-392' of p53/TP53 via its association with CK2 (casein kinase II). Binds specifically to double- stranded DNA and at low levels to DNA modified by the antitumor agent cisplatin. May potentiate cisplatin-induced cell death by blocking replication and repair of modified DNA. Also acts as a transcriptional coactivator for p63/TP63. |

Background
The protein encoded by this gene is a subunit of aheterodimer that, along with SUPT16H, forms chromatintranscriptional elongation factor FACT. FACT interacts specificallywith histones H2A/H2B to effect nucleosome disassembly andtranscription elongation. FACT and cisplatin-damaged DNA may becrucial to the anticancer mechanism of cisplatin. This encodedprotein contains a high mobility group box which most likelyconstitutes the structure recognition element forcisplatin-modified DNA. This protein also functions as aco-activator of the transcriptional activator p63. An alternativelyspliced transcript variant of this gene has been described, but itsfull-length nature is not known.
