Chromodomain-helicase-DNA-binding protein 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the CHD1 gene.The CHD family of proteins is characterized by the presence of chromo (chromatin organization modifier) domains and SNF2-related helicase/ATPase domains. CHD genes alter gene expression possibly by modification of chromatin structure thus altering access of the transcriptional apparatus to its chromosomal DNA template.
