Predicted to enable chromo shadow domain binding activity and identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in DNA replication-dependent chromatin assembly and nucleosome assembly. Predicted to act upstream of or within DNA repair and DNA replication. Predicted to be located in chromatin. Predicted to be part of CAF-1 complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in colon cancer; high grade glioma; neuroblastoma; and systemic lupus erythematosus. Orthologous to human CHAF1A (chromatin assembly factor 1 subunit A).
