Cooperates with chromatin assembly factor 1 (CAF-1) to promote replication-dependent chromatin assembly and with HIRA to promote replication-independent chromatin assembly. Required for the formation of senescence-associated heterochromatin foci (SAHF) and efficient senescence-associated cell cycle exit. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10759893, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11897662, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12842904, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14718166, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15621527, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15664198, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16151251}. |ASF1 hist chap| |DNA replication-dependent nucleosome organization| |DNA replication-dependent nucleosome assembly| |negative regulation of chromatin silencing| |negative regulation of gene silencing| |regulation of chromatin silencing| |DNA replication-independent nucleosome assembly| |DNA replication-independent nucleosome organization| |negative regulation of chromatin organization| |positive regulation of gene expression, epigenetic| |nucleosome assembly| |osteoblast differentiation| |regulation of gene silencing| |histone binding| |chromatin assembly| |negative regulation of chromosome organization| |chromatin assembly or disassembly| |nucleosome organization| |DNA packaging| |regulation of chromatin organization| |protein-DNA complex assembly| |regulation of gene expression, epigenetic| |nuclear chromatin| |protein-DNA complex subunit organization| |muscle cell differentiation| |ossification| |DNA conformation change| |regulation of chromosome organization| |negative regulation of organelle organization| |chromatin binding| |muscle structure development| |DNA repair| |protein-containing complex| |chromatin organization| |negative regulation of cellular component organization| |DNA metabolic process| |cellular response to DNA damage stimulus| |cellular protein-containing complex assembly| |chromosome organization| |regulation of organelle organization| |positive regulation of transcription, DNA-templated| |protein-containing complex assembly| |positive regulation of nucleic acid-templated transcription| |positive regulation of RNA biosynthetic process| |cellular response to stress| |positive regulation of RNA metabolic process| |protein-containing complex subunit organization| |positive regulation of nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process| |positive regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of cellular biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of gene expression| |positive regulation of biosynthetic process| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp272|CHIR-124 0.04μM R06 exp272]]|-1.91| |[[:results:exp362|GSK-J4 1μM R07 exp362]]|-1.71| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
