?cl02608: BAH Superfamily (this model, PSSM-Id:295389 is obsolete and has been replaced by 470629)
BAH, or Bromo Adjacent Homology domain (also called ELM1 and BAM for Bromo Adjacent Motif). BAH domains have first been described as domains found in the polybromo protein and Yeast Rsc1/Rsc2 (Remodeling of the Structure of Chromatin). They also occur in mammalian DNA methyltransferases and the MTA1 subunits of histone deacetylase complexes. A BAH domain is also found in Yeast Sir3p and in the origin receptor complex protein 1 (Orc1p), where it was found to interact with the N-terminal lobe of the silence information regulator 1 protein (Sir1p), confirming the initial hypothesis that BAH plays a role in protein-protein interactions.
