ID:NFX1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Transcriptional repressor NF-X1; EC=6.3.2.-; AltName: Full=Nuclear transcription factor, X box-binding protein 1; FUNCTION: Binds to the X-box motif of MHC class II genes and represses their expression. May play an important role in regulating the duration of an inflammatory response by limiting the period in which MHC class II molecules are induced by interferon-gamma. Isoform 3 binds to the X-box motif of TERT promoter and represses its expression. Together with PABPC1 or PABPC4, isoform 1 acts as a coactivator for TERT expression. Mediates E2-dependent ubiquitination. SUBUNIT: Isoform 1 and isoform 3 interact with human papillomavirus (HPV) type-16 E6 oncoprotein. Isoform 1 interacts with PABPC1 and PABPC4. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. INDUCTION: By IFNG/IFN-gamma. DOMAIN: The RING-type zinc finger domain interacts with an ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (E2) and facilitates ubiquitination. PTM: Isoform 3 is polyubiquitinated in the presence of HPV16 E6 protein; which leads to proteasomal degradation. Isoform 1 is not polyubiquitinated. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the NFX1 family. SIMILARITY: Contains 8 NF-X1-type zinc fingers. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 R3H domain. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 RING-type zinc finger. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAA69517.1; Type=Frameshift; Positions=78, 202, 284;
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.
