Y box binding protein 1 also known as Y-box transcription factor or nuclease-sensitive element-binding protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the YBX1 gene. [5]
YBX1 is a potential drug target in cancer therapy. [6] YB-1 helps the replication of adenovirus type 5, a commonly used vector in gene therapy. [6] Thus, YB-1 can cause an "oncolytic" effect in YB-1 positive cancer cells treated with adenoviruses.
Y box binding protein 1 has been shown to interact with:
A regulatory sequence is a segment of a nucleic acid molecule which is capable of increasing or decreasing the expression of specific genes within an organism. Regulation of gene expression is an essential feature of all living organisms and viruses.
The TATA-binding protein (TBP) is a general transcription factor that binds specifically to a DNA sequence called the TATA box. This DNA sequence is found about 30 base pairs upstream of the transcription start site in some eukaryotic gene promoters.
Transcriptional repressor CTCF also known as 11-zinc finger protein or CCCTC-binding factor is a transcription factor that in humans is encoded by the CTCF gene. CTCF is involved in many cellular processes, including transcriptional regulation, insulator activity, V(D)J recombination and regulation of chromatin architecture.
POU domain, class 2, transcription factor 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the POU2F1 gene.
The proto-oncogene c-Rel is a protein that in humans is encoded by the REL gene. The c-Rel protein is a member of the NF-κB family of transcription factors and contains a Rel homology domain (RHD) at its N-terminus and two C-terminal transactivation domains. c-Rel is a myeloid checkpoint protein that can be targeted for treating cancer. c-Rel has an important role in B-cell survival and proliferation. The REL gene is amplified or mutated in several human B-cell lymphomas, including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Cyclic AMP-dependent transcription factor ATF-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ATF1 gene.
Nuclear transcription factor Y subunit beta is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NFYB gene.
Transcription initiation factor TFIID subunit 6 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAF6 gene.
Myocyte-specific enhancer factor 2A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MEF2A gene. MEF2A is a transcription factor in the Mef2 family. In humans it is located on chromosome 15q26. Certain mutations in MEF2A cause an autosomal dominant form of coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction.
DNA damage-binding protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the DDB1 gene.
Transcription initiation factor TFIID subunit 4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAF4 gene.
Transcription initiation factor TFIID subunit 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAF2 gene.
Transcription initiation factor TFIID subunit 10 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAF10 gene.
Transcription initiation factor TFIID subunit 5 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAF5 gene.
Splicing factor, arginine/serine-rich 9, also known as SFRS9, is a human gene encoding an SR protein involved in splice site selection in alternative splicing.
Nuclear transcription factor Y subunit gamma is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NFYC gene.
Nuclear factor 1 C-type is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NFIC gene.
Transcription initiation factor TFIID subunit 8 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAF8 gene.
CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein gamma (C/EBPγ) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CEBPG gene. This gene has no introns.
Zinc finger protein 40 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HIVEP1 gene.
