FACT complex subunit SPT16 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SUPT16H gene.[1][2][3]
Transcription of protein-coding genes can be reconstituted on naked DNA with only the general transcription factors and RNA polymerase II. However, this minimal system cannot transcribe DNA packaged into chromatin, indicating that accessory factors may facilitate access to DNA. One such factor, FACT (facilitates chromatin transcription), interacts specifically with histones H2A/H2B to effect nucleosome disassembly and transcription elongation. FACT is composed of an 80 kDa subunit and a 140 kDa subunit, the latter of which is the protein encoded by this gene.[3]
SUPT16H has been shown to interact with BAZ1B.[4]

Rejection
Like a promise unfulfilled
From an emptiness distilled
As one final sign
Perpetuates our slow decline
We've failed
The systems we've created drag us down
On corded streets
We'll die alone
Our dreams are only flesh and bone
One day some ay
When you fall apart and waste away
You'll see no doubt
This world is gonna spit you out
Drained
No sign of life
This world of lies
Is gonna cut you down to size
They'll spit you out
Like a spoke in their machine
Some people break like glass
It just might be your final chance to feel
Can you distinguish fate from what seems real
