CGG triplet repeat-binding protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CGGBP1 gene. [5] [6] [7]
The existence of a CGG-binding factor was recognised in 1990 and the protein was identified by Deissler and colleagues in 1997. It has 167 amino acids and a mass of 20kDa and includes a C2H2 zinc finger DNA-binding domain. The human gene is on chromosome 3 at 3p11.1, right next to the centromere, where it has four known promoters. CGGBP1 appears to have evolved from hAT transposons and is found in all amniotes. [8]
The protein binds to CGG trinucleotide repeats to regulate transcription (including inhibiting Alu elements) and translation. It is essential to cell survival, having wide cytoprotective functions including DNA repair and telomere maintenance. Because the gene's promoters include CGG repeats, it is self-regulatory. [8]
CGGBP1 influences expression of the fragile X mental retardation gene, FMR1, by specifically interacting with the CGG trinucleotide repeat in its 5-prime UTR, the untranslated regulatory region upstream of the gene's coding sequence. [7]
FMR1 is a human gene that codes for a protein called fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein, or FMRP. This protein, most commonly found in the brain, is essential for normal cognitive development and female reproductive function. Mutations of this gene can lead to fragile X syndrome, intellectual disability, premature ovarian failure, autism, Parkinson's disease, developmental delays and other cognitive deficits. The FMR1 premutation is associated with a wide spectrum of clinical phenotypes that affect more than two million people worldwide.
Integral membrane protein GPR155, also known as G protein-coupled receptor 155, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the GPR155 gene. Mutations in this gene may be associated with autism.
Fragile X mental retardation syndrome-related protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FXR1 gene.
Trinucleotide repeat-containing gene 6A protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TNRC6A gene.
AT-rich interactive domain-containing protein 1B is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ARID1B gene. ARID1B is a component of the human SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex.

Zinc finger protein 300 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ZNF300 gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a C2H2-type zinc finger DNA binding protein and a likely transcription factor.
