The encoded protein has histone acetyltransferase activity and recruits p300/CBP-associated factor and CREB binding protein as part of a multisubunit coactivation complex. This protein is initially found in the cytoplasm but is translocated into the nucleus upon phosphorylation. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. In addition, a polymorphic repeat region is found in the C-terminus of the encoded protein. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010] Annotation information Note: RAC3 (Gene ID: 5881) and NCOA3 (Gene ID: 8202) share the RAC3 symbol/alias in common. RAC3 is a widely used alternative name for nuclear receptor coactivator 3 (NCOA3), which can be confused with the official symbol for ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 3 (RAC3).
