About BCAS3

Enables several functions, including acetyltransferase activator activity; beta-tubulin binding activity; and histone acetyltransferase binding activity. Involved in cellular response to estrogen stimulus; positive regulation of catalytic activity; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in euchromatin; nucleus; and phagophore assembly site. Implicated in Hengel-Maroofian-Schols syndrome. Biomarker of breast cancer. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
