BRD8 - bromodomain containing 8 Gene
Also Known as SMAP; p120; SMAP2
Species: Homo sapiens
About BRD8
This gene has 26 transcripts (splice variants) and 291 orthologues. Broad expression in testis (RPKM 45.3), brain (RPKM 10.9) and 23 other tissues.
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.
