ID:TEAD1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Transcriptional enhancer factor TEF-1; AltName: Full=NTEF-1; AltName: Full=Protein GT-IIC; AltName: Full=TEA domain family member 1; Short=TEAD-1; AltName: Full=Transcription factor 13; Short=TCF-13; FUNCTION: Transcription factor which plays a key role in the Hippo signaling pathway, a pathway involved in organ size control and tumor suppression by restricting proliferation and promoting apoptosis. The core of this pathway is composed of a kinase cascade wherein MST1/MST2, in complex with its regulatory protein SAV1, phosphorylates and activates LATS1/2 in complex with its regulatory protein MOB1, which in turn phosphorylates and inactivates YAP1 oncoprotein and WWTR1/TAZ. Acts by mediating gene expression of YAP1 and WWTR1/TAZ, thereby regulating cell proliferation, migration and epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) induction. Binds specifically and cooperatively to the SPH and GT-IIC 'enhansons' (5'-GTGGAATGT-3') and activates transcription in vivo in a cell-specific manner. The activation function appears to be mediated by a limiting cell-specific transcriptional intermediary factor (TIF). Involved in cardiac development. Binds to the M-CAT motif. SUBUNIT: Interacts with YAP1 and WWTR1/TAZ. INTERACTION: Q26366:vg (xeno); NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-529156, EBI-162687; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Preferentially expressed in skeletal muscle. Lower levels in pancreas, placenta, and heart. DISEASE: Defects in TEAD1 are the cause of Sveinsson chorioretinal atrophy (SCRA) [MIM:108985]; also known as atrophia areata (AA) or helicoidal peripapillary chorioretinal degeneration (HPCD). SCRA is characterized by symmetrical lesions radiating from the optic disk involving the retina and the choroid. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 TEA DNA-binding domain. CAUTION: It is uncertain whether Met-1 or Met-16 is the initiator. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAB00791.1; Type=Miscellaneous discrepancy; Note=Unusual initiator. The initiator methionine is coded by a non-canonical ATT isoleucine codon;
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
