Fe65 a transcription coregulator adapter protein that forms a transcriptionally active complex with the gamma-secretase-derived amyloid precursor protein (APP) intracellular domain. Plays a central role in the response to DNA damage by translocating to the nucleus and inducing apoptosis. May act by specifically recognizing and binding histone H2AX phosphorylated on Y142 (H2AXpY142) at double-strand breaks (DSBs), recruiting other pro-apoptosis factors such as JNK1. Required for histone H4 acetylation at double-strand breaks (DSBs). Its ability to specifically bind modified histones and chromatin modifying enzymes such as TIP60, probably explains its trancription activation activity. Functions in association with TSHZ3, SET and HDAC factors as a transcriptional repressor, that inhibits the expression of CASP4. Highly expressed in brain; strongly reduced in elderly subjects with Alzheimer disease. 6 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported.
