Anti-HCF1

This gene is a member of the host cell factor family and encodes a protein with five Kelch repeats, a fibronectin-like motif, and six HCF repeats, each of which contains a highly specific cleavage signal. This nuclear coactivator is proteolytically cleaved at one of the six possible sites, resulting in the creation of an N-terminal chain and the corresponding C-terminal chain. The final form of this protein consists of noncovalently bound N- and C-terminal chains. The protein is involved in control of the cell cycle and transcriptional regulation during herpes simplex virus infection. Alternatively spliced variants which encode different protein isoforms have been described, however, not all variants have been fully characterized.

Involved in control of the cell cycle (PubMed:10629049, PubMed:10779346, PubMed:15190068, PubMed:16624878, PubMed:23629655). Also antagonizes transactivation by ZBTB17 and GABP2, represses ZBTB17 activation of the p15(INK4b) promoter and inhibits its ability to recruit p300 (PubMed:10675337, PubMed:12244100). Coactivator for EGR2 and GABP2 (PubMed:12244100, PubMed:14532282). Tethers the chromatin modifying Set1/Ash2 histone H3 'Lys-4' methyltransferase (H3K4me) and Sin3 histone deacetylase (HDAC) complexes (involved in the activation and repression of transcription, respectively) together (PubMed:12670868). Component of a THAP1/THAP3-HCFC1-OGT complex that is required for the regulation of the transcriptional activity of RRM1 (PubMed:20200153). As part of the NSL complex it may be involved in acetylation of nucleosomal histone H4 on several lysine residues (PubMed:20018852). Recruits KMT2E/MLL5 to E2F1 responsive promoters promoting transcriptional activation and thereby facilitates G1 to S phase transition (PubMed:23629655). Modulates expression of homeobox protein PDX1, perhaps acting in concert with transcription factor E2F1, thereby regulating pancreatic beta-cell growth and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. May negatively modulate transcriptional activity of FOXO3. [The UniProt Consortium] Recommended dilutions: WB 1:500-2000 Immunohistochemistry: 1/100 - 1/300. ELISA: 1/20000. Not yet tested in other applications.. Cellular localization: Cytoplasm . Nucleus . HCFC1R1 modulates its subcellular localization and overexpression of HCFC1R1 leads to accumulation of HCFC1 in the cytoplasm (PubMed:12235138). Non-processed HCFC1 associates with chromatin. Colocalizes with CREB3 and CANX in the ER. .
