Functional narrative    

DNA-binding protein that induces severe bending of DNA. Required for DNA-binding by the FACT complex, a general chromatin factor that acts to reorganize nucleosomes. The FACT complex is involved in multiple processes that require DNA as a template such as mRNA elongation, DNA replication and DNA repair. Also augments the fidelity of transcription by RNA polymerase III independently of any role in the FACT complex. Required for transcriptional initiation fidelity of some but not all tRNA genes. Seems to be functionally redundant with NHP6B.

Region 1: 1-7 Region 2: 8-17
