Biochem/physiol Actions

GSK2801 is a potent inhibitor of the BAZ2 family of bromodomain containing proteins. BAZ2A is an essential component of the nucleolar remodeling complex (NoRC), which mediates recruitment of histone modifying enzymes and DNA methylase involved in the silencing of ribosomal RNA transcription. BAZ2B is believed to be involved in regulating nucleosome mobilization along linear DNA. For full characterization details, please visit the GSK2801 probe summary on the Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC) website.
