Nucleosome assembly protein 1-like 4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NAP1L4 gene.{{cite journal | vauthors = Hu RJ, Lee MP, Johnson LA, Feinberg AP | title = A novel human homologue of yeast nucleosome assembly protein, 65 kb centromeric to the p57KIP2 gene, is biallelically expressed in fetal and adult tissues | journal = Hum Mol Genet | volume = 5 | issue = 11 | pages = 1743–8 |date=Mar 1997 | pmid = 8923002 | doi =10.1093/hmg/5.11.1743 | doi-access = free }}{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: NAP1L4 nucleosome assembly protein 1-like 4| url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=4676}}

This gene encodes a member of the nucleosome assembly protein (NAP) family which can interact with both core and linker histones. It can shuttle between the cytoplasm and nucleus, suggesting a role as a histone chaperone. This gene is one of several located near the imprinted gene domain of 11p15.5, an important tumor-suppressor gene region. Alterations in this region have been associated with the Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, Wilms tumor, rhabdomyosarcoma, adrenocortical carcinoma, and lung, ovarian, and breast cancer.
