== Function Summary ==
* **Entrez Summary**: N/A
* **UniProt Summary**: Histone chaperone that facilitates histone deposition and histone exchange and removal during nucleosome assembly and disassembly. 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}.
