Enables histone binding activity. Acts upstream of or within chromatin assembly or disassembly and chromatin remodeling. Located in condensed chromosome; nucleus; and pericentric heterochromatin. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; lung mesenchyme; and retina. Used to study Williams-Beuren syndrome.
