Family SNF2/RAD54 helicase family
Function
Plays an essential role in normal development and survival. Involved in regulation of the expansion or survival of lymphoid cells. Required for de novo or maintenance DNA methylation. May control silencing of the imprinted CDKN1C gene through DNA methylation. May play a role in formation and organization of heterochromatin, implying a functional role in the regulation of transcription and mitosis.

Response regulation LSH (HELLS) is involved in ferroptosis and is a potential therapeutic target in cancer because of its crucial role in ferroptosis. LSH functioned as an oncogene in lung cancer in vitro and in vivo. And LSH promotes the lipid metabolic genes, including SCD1 and FADS2.
