THAP1 THAP domain containing 1 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 55145)
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 55145)
Symbol: THAP1
Full name: THAP domain containing 1
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: DYT6
Summary: The protein encoded by this gene contains a THAP domain, a conserved DNA-binding domain. This protein colocalizes with the apoptosis response protein PAWR/PAR-4 in promyelocytic leukemia (PML) nuclear bodies, and functions as a proapoptotic factor that links PAWR to PML nuclear bodies. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been observed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
