Description
BRMS1L (BRMS1 Like Transcriptional Repressor) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 14q13.2. It encodes a component of the SIN3A histone deacetylase (HDAC) complex, involved in transcriptional repression. The protein shares homology with BRMS1 and is implicated in chromatin remodeling and gene silencing. BRMS1L is widely expressed in various tissues and may play a role in cancer metastasis suppression.
Disease Associations

| Breast cancer | Potential tumor suppressor; loss of BRMS1L expression may promote metastasis | Limited evidence from cell line studies; no direct OMIM or ClinVar entries |
| Melanoma | Reduced expression correlates with increased metastatic potential | Observational studies; not yet validated in large cohorts |

Protein Summary
The BRMS1L protein is a 288-amino acid component of the SIN3A/HDAC transcriptional repression complex. It contains a coiled-coil domain and interacts with SIN3A to facilitate histone deacetylation and gene silencing. BRMS1L is localized to the nucleus and is thought to regulate genes involved in cell proliferation and metastasis. Its expression is reduced in some metastatic cancers, suggesting a tumor-suppressive role.
