ATAD2b (also known as KIAA1240) is an eukaryotic protein located in the nucleus that contains an AAA domain and a bromodomain. AAA ATPase domains use the energy of adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP) binding to participate in cellular activities as diverse as cell cycle control, signal transduction, disassembly of macromolecular complexes and regulation of gene expression. Bromodomains bind acetyl-lysine motifs and are thought to regulate protein–protein interactions in chromatin remodeling and transcriptional control. In humans, ATAD2B is an E2F target gene that binds to the MYC oncogene. High ATAD2b levels correlate with a higher risk of distant recurrence in breast cancer, and mutation of the bromodomain in ATAD2b impairs the binding between ATAD2b and certain acetylated histone tails.
