hmg-4 encodes a protein with strong similarity to the highly conserved high mobility group protein SSRP1 (structure-specific DNA recognition protein); by homology, HMG-4 is predicted to be a member of the FACT (facilitates chromatin transcription) complex that functions as a transcription elongation factor; RNAi experiments indicate that hmg-4 is required for locomotion and larval development, and required redundantly with hmg-3, its paralog, for embryonic development.
