HMGN4

High mobility group nucleosome-binding domain-containing protein 4 is a is_associated_with::transcription factor that in humans is encoded by the HMGN4 is_associated_with::gene.

Function
The protein encoded by this gene, a member of the is_associated_with::HMGN protein family, is thought to reduce the compactness of the is_associated_with::chromatin fiber in is_associated_with::nucleosomes, thereby enhancing transcription from chromatin templates. Transcript variants utilizing alternative polyadenylation signals exist for this gene.
