Subunit of the Isw1a complex; Isw1a has nucleosome-stimulated ATPase activity and represses transcription initiation by specific positioning of a promoter proximal dinucleosome; promotes nucleosome shifts in the 5 prime direction; IOC3 has a paralog, ESC8, that arose from the whole genome duplication [Source:SGD;Acc:S000001909]
Chromosome VI: 169,922-172,285 forward strand.
R64-1-1:BK006940.2
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 17 orthologues and 1 paralogue.
