Bromodomain and Extraterminal Domain (BET) Proteins (BET)

Target
BET
Molecular classification
Epigenetic regulator, Transcription factor, Bromodomain-containing protein
01

Overview

The Bromodomain and Extraterminal domain protein family comprises highly conserved nuclear regulators that interpret histone acetylation marks via tandem bromodomains while using their ET domains for diverse protein-protein interactions crucial for controlling gene expression programs across health and disease contexts. They play a central role in gene transcription, chromatin remodeling, and cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and response to viral infection.
