BAZ1B
Template:Short description Template:Infobox gene Tyrosine-protein kinase, or Bromodomain adjacent to zinc finger domain, 1B (BAZ1B) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the BAZ1B gene.[1][2][3]
Function
This gene encodes a member of the bromodomain protein family. The bromodomain is a structural motif characteristic of proteins involved in chromatin-dependent regulation of transcription. This gene is deleted in Williams-Beuren syndrome, a developmental disorder caused by deletion of multiple genes at 7q11.23.[3]
BAZ1B has been found to affect the activity of 448 other genes and is very important in the development of the neural crest and the face. Research suggests that changes in BAZ1B may have been involved in "self-domesticating" humans.[4][5]
