ARID-encoding genes are involved in a variety of biological processes including embryonic development, cell lineage gene regulation and cell cycle control. Although the specific roles of this domain and of ARID-containing proteins in transcriptional regulation are yet to be elucidated, they include both positive and negative transcriptional regulation and a likely involvement in the modification of chromatin structure.enDNA-binding proteinTranscription factorChromatinDevelopmentEvolutionARID proteins come in from the desertJournal article000100048610.1016/S0968-0004(00)01597-80000875280000102-s2.0-003421321763721Kortschak, R.
