ID:HM20A_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=High mobility group protein 20A; AltName: Full=HMG box-containing protein 20A; AltName: Full=HMG domain-containing protein 1; AltName: Full=HMG domain-containing protein HMGX1; FUNCTION: Plays a role in neuronal differentiation as chromatin- associated protein. Acts as inhibitor of HMG20B. Overcomes the repressive effects of the neuronal silencer REST and induces the activation of neuronal-specific genes. Involved in the recruitment of the histone methyltransferase MLL and consequent increased methylation of histone H3 lysine 4 (By similarity). INTERACTION: Q96BS2:TESC; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-740641, EBI-740653; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus (By similarity). TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitous. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 HMG box DNA-binding domain.
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.
