Bromodomain-containing protein 4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the BRD4 gene.[5][6]

BRD4 is a member of the BET (bromodomain and extra terminal domain) family, which also includes BRD2, BRD3, and BRDT.[7] BRD4, similar to other BET family members, contains two bromodomains that recognize acetylated lysine residues.[8] BRD4 also has an extended C-terminal domain with little sequence homology to other BET family members.[7]
