General annotation (Comments)

Function

Participates in the regulation of gene transcription. Binds DNA in a non-specific manner, yet also specifically recognizes the core sequence 5'-CAC[GA]TG-3'. Seems to activate the transcription of growth-related genes.

Subunit structure

Efficient DNA binding requires dimerization with another bHLH protein. Binds DNA as a heterodimer with MAX. Interacts with TAF1C. Interacts with PARP10. Interacts with KDM5A and KDM5B. Interacts (when phosphorylated at Thr-58 and Ser-62) with FBXW7 By similarity. Interacts with NO66 By similarity. Interacts with SPAG9. Interacts with PIM2. Ref.8 Ref.10

Subcellular location

Nucleusnucleoplasm By similarity. Nucleusnucleolus By similarity.

Developmental stage

Expressed in the proliferating cells of the developing CNS and the epidermis. In the spinal cord at embryonic days 10.5, 11.5 and 12.5 dpc, expressed within a subset of cells in the proliferative ventricular zone, as well as in the differentiating cells at the ventral portion of the intermediate zone. Also detected in the roof plate and in the neural crest. At 14.5 dpc, found in regions containing differentiating post-mitotic neurons. In the developing epidermis at 14.5 dpc, found in the dorsal lateral epidermis. At 17 dpc, expression is confined primarily to the proliferative malphigian layer of the epidermis and to the dermal papilla and primary germ cells in the dermis. Ref.6

Post-translational modification

Phosphorylated by PRKDC. Phosphorylated at Ser-62 by DYRK2; this primes the protein for subsequent phosphorylation by GSK3B at Thr-58. Phosphorylation at Thr-58 and Ser-62 by GSK3 is required for ubiquitination and degradation by the proteasome. Phosphorylation at Ser-62 by CDK2 prevents Ras-induced senescence By similarity. Phosphorylation at Ser-329 by PIM2 leads to the stabilization of MYC. Ref.10

Ubiquitinated by the SCF(FBXW7) complex when phosphorylated at Thr-58 and Ser-62, leading to its degradation by the proteasome. In the nucleoplasm, ubiquitination is counteracted by USP28, which interacts with of FBXW7 (FBW7alpha), leading to its deubiquitination and preventing degradation. Also polyubiquitinated by the DCX(TRUSS) complex By similarity. Ref.10

Involvement in disease

Overexpression of C-Myc is implicated in the etiology of a variety of hematopoietic tumors.

Biotechnological use

POU5F1/OCT4, SOX2, MYC/c-Myc and KLF4 are the four Yamanaka factors. When combined, these factors are sufficient to reprogram differentiated cells to an embryonic-like state designated iPS (induced pluripotent stem) cells. iPS cells exhibit the morphology and growth properties of ES cells and express ES cell marker genes. Ref.9

Sequence similarities

Contains 1 bHLH (basic helix-loop-helix) domain.

Sequence caution

The sequence AAH06728.2 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation.
