{"symbol":"ASF1A","synonyms":["HSPC146","CGI-98","CIA"],"name":"anti-silencing function 1A histone chaperone","description":"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 protein is a key component of a histone donor complex that functions in nucleosome assembly. It interacts with histones H3 and H4, and functions together with a chromatin assembly factor during DNA replication and repair.
