Chd1 - chromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 1

Predicted to enable methylated histone binding activity. Acts upstream of or within chromatin remodeling. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in early conceptus and primary oocyte. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in castration-resistant prostate carcinoma and prostate cancer. Orthologous to human CHD1 (chromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
