ELL-associated factor 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EAF2 gene. [5] [6] [7] It is part of the EAF family of proteins and plays a role in transcriptional elongation by interacting with ELL proteins. [8]

The ARNT gene encodes the aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator protein that forms a complex with ligand-bound aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), and is required for receptor function. The encoded protein has also been identified as the beta subunit of a heterodimeric transcription factor, hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF1). A t(1;12)(q21;p13) translocation, which results in a TEL–ARNT fusion protein, is associated with acute myeloblastic leukemia. Three alternatively spliced variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">EAF1</span> Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens

ELL-associated factor 1 is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the EAF1 gene. It is part of the EAF family of proteins.

In molecular biology, the EAF family of proteins act as transcriptional transactivators of ELL and ELL2 RNA Polymerase II transcriptional elongation factors. EAF proteins form a stable heterodimer complex with ELL proteins to facilitate the binding of RNA polymerase II to activate transcription elongation. ELL and EAF1 are components of Cajal bodies, which have a role in leukemogenesis. EAF1 also has the capacity to interact with ELL1 and ELL2. The N terminus of approx 120 of EAF1 has a region of high serine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid residues.
