BRPF1

This gene encodes a bromodomain, PHD finger and chromo/Tudor-related Pro-Trp-Trp-Pro (PWWP) domain containing protein. The encoded protein is a component of the MOZ/MORF histone acetyltransferase complexes which function as a transcriptional regulators. This protein binds to the catalytic MYST domains of the MOZ and MORF proteins and may play a role in stimulating acetyltransferase and transcriptional activity of the complex. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

BRPF1

Scaffold subunit of various histone acetyltransferase (HAT) complexes, such as the MOZ/MORF and HBO1 complexes, which have a histone H3 acetyltransferase activity (PubMed:16387653, PubMed:24065767, PubMed:27939640).
Plays a key role in HBO1 complex by directing KAT7/HBO1 specificity towards histone H3 'Lys-14' acetylation (H3K14ac) (PubMed:24065767).
Some HAT complexes preferentially mediate histone H3 'Lys-23' (H3K23ac) acetylation (PubMed:27939640).
Positively regulates the transcription of RUNX1 and RUNX2 (PubMed:18794358).

Nucleus; Cytoplasm; Chromosome. Localization to the nucleus depends on KAT6A, ING5 and MEAF6 (PubMed:18794358, PubMed:27939640). Localizes to transcription start sites (PubMed:24065767).

Intellectual developmental disorder with dysmorphic facies and ptosis (IDDDFP): An autosomal dominant neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by delayed psychomotor development, intellectual disability, delayed language, and facial dysmorphisms, most notably ptosis. Additional features may include poor growth, hypotonia, and seizures.
