Function
Histone chaperone that facilitates histone deposition and histone exchange and removal during nucleosome assembly and disassembly. Cooperates with chromatin assembly factor 1 (CAF-1) to promote replication-dependent chromatin assembly. Does not participate in replication-independent nucleosome deposition which is mediated by ASF1A and HIRA. Required for spermatogenesis.
We found that only S192A in hASF1a and S198A in hASF1b significantly affected phosphorylation by hTLK2 | hASF1b stability does not appear to depend on phosphorylation by TLKs, but recently it has been shown that hASF1b transcription is controlled by the cell-cycle regulated E2F transcription factors
