gene: lin-53 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Enables histone deacetylase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cell fate specification; embryonic digestive tract morphogenesis; and nematode male tail tip morphogenesis. Acts upstream of or within mitochondrial unfolded protein response. Located in nucleus. Part of DRM complex and NuRD complex. Expressed in several structures, including P3.p hermaphrodite; P4.p hermaphrodite; P5.p hermaphrodite; P7.p hermaphrodite; and P8.p hermaphrodite. Is an ortholog of human RBBP4 (RB binding protein 4, chromatin remodeling factor) and RBBP7 (RB binding protein 7, chromatin remodeling factor).
