Disease

[BRD4_HUMAN] Note=A chromosomal aberration involving BRD4 is found in a rare, aggressive, and lethal carcinoma arising in midline organs of young people. Translocation t(15;19)(q14;p13) with NUT which produces a BRD4-NUT fusion protein.^{[1] [2]}

Function

[BRD4_HUMAN] Plays a role in a process governing chromosomal dynamics during mitosis (By similarity).
