  ID: MYOD1_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Myoblast determination protein 1; AltName: Full=Class C basic helix-loop-helix protein 1; Short=bHLHc1; AltName: Full=Myogenic factor 3; Short=Myf-3;
FUNCTION: Involved in muscle differentiation (myogenic factor). Induces fibroblasts to differentiate into myoblasts. Activates muscle-specific promoters. Interacts with and is inhibited by the twist protein. This interaction probably involves the basic domains of both proteins (By similarity).
SUBUNIT: Efficient DNA binding requires dimerization with another bHLH protein. Seems to form active heterodimers with ITF-2. Interacts with SUV39H1 and CDK9. Interacts with DDX5 (By similarity).
INTERACTION: P15923-1:TCF3; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-488878, EBI-769645;
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus.
PTM: Phosphorylated by CDK9. This phosphorylation promotes its function in muscle differentiation.
PTM: Acetylated by a complex containing EP300 and PCAF. The acetylation is essential to activate target genes. Conversely, its deacetylation by SIRT1 inhibits its function (By similarity).
PTM: Ubiquitinated on the N-terminus; which is required for proteasomal degradation.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 bHLH (basic helix-loop-helix) domain.

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.
