H2az1 - H2A.Z variant histone 1

Predicted to enable RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; RNA polymerase II core promoter sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and nucleosomal DNA binding activity. Involved in cellular response to insulin stimulus. Located in nucleus. Orthologous to human H2AZ1 (H2A.Z variant histone 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
