Relevance to Autism
Genetic association has been found between common SNPs near the HMGN1 gene and ASD in an AGRE cohort (Abuhatzira et al., 2011). In addition, that study also showed that HMGN1 functionally binds the human MECP2 promoter.
Molecular Function
Binds to the inner side of nucleosomal DNA, thus altering the interaction between the DNA and the histone octamer. May be involved in the process which maintains transcribable genes in an unique chromatin conformation. Inhibits the phosphorylation of nucleosomal histones H3 and H2A by RPS6KA5/MSK1 and RPS6KA3/RSK2.

The chromatin-binding protein HMGN1 regulates the expression of methyl CpG-binding protein 2 (MECP2) and affects the behavior of mice.
