The SIN3A-HDAC complex deacetylates histones thereby repressing gene transcription. Here we describe family with sequence similarity 60A (FAM60A), a cell cycle-regulated protein that binds to the SIN3-HDAC complex. FAM60A expression peaks during G(1) and S phases of the cell cycle in U2OS cells, in a manner similar to the G(1) regulator cyclin D1, which is a known target of SIN3-HDAC. In this light we found that FAM60A binds to SIN3-HDAC-regulated promoters such as cyclin D1 in G(1) and S phases ...[more]
