BRD8 bromodomain containing 8 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 10902)

Symbol: BRD8

Full name: bromodomain containing 8

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: SMAP; SMAP2; p120

Summary: The protein encoded by this gene interacts with thyroid hormone receptor in a ligand-dependent manner and enhances thyroid hormone-dependent activation from thyroid response elements. This protein contains a bromodomain and is thought to be a nuclear receptor coactivator. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode distinct isoforms have been identified.
