| UniProt code: Q15059. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | Chromatin reader that recognizes and binds hyperacetylated chromatin and plays a role in the regulation of transcription, probably by chromatin remodeling and interaction with transcription factors (PubMed:18406326, PubMed:27105114). Regulates transcription by promoting the binding of the transcription factor GATA1 to its targets (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8K2F0, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18406326, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27105114}. | |
| Subunit: | Interacts (via bromo domain 1) with GATA1 acetylated at 'Lys- 312' and 'Lys-315'. Interacts (via bromo domain 1) with GATA2 acetylated on lysine residues (By similarity). Interacts (via bromo domains) with acetylated lysine residues on the N-terminus of histone H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 (in vitro). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8K2F0, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18406326, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22464331}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8K2F0}. Note=Detected on chromatin. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8K2F0}. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Ubiquitous. | |
| Domain: | The Bromo domains specifically recognize and bind acetylated histones. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27105114}. | |
| Disease: | Note=A chromosomal aberration involving BRD3 is found in a rare, aggressive, and lethal carcinoma arising in midline organs of young people. Translocation t(15;9)(q14;q34) with NUTM1 which produces a BRD3-NUTM1 fusion protein. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17934517}. | |
| Sequence caution: | Sequence=BAA05393.2; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Extended N-terminus.; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; | |
