Protein attributes
| Sequence length | 623 AA. |
| Sequence status | Complete. |
| Protein existence | Evidence at protein level |
General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Required to specify the fate of ventral blastomeres in the early embryo, and postembryonically for the development of the intestine. Directly regulates expression of zygotically expressed med-1 and med-2 to direct mesendoderm development. Ref.2 Ref.4 |
| Subunit structure | Monomer. Ref.3 |
| Subcellular location | |
| Tissue specificity | Postembryonic intestinal cells. Ref.2 |
| Developmental stage | Expressed both maternally and zygotically. Ref.2 |
| Domain | Alternative DNA-binding strategy due to lack of a leucine zipper dimerization segment: DNA binding domain binds to its cognate half-site, an N-terminal arm recognizes adjacent 5' AT-rich sequences in the minor groove and the intervening residues stabilize interactions of these two subdomains with DNA. |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the bZIP family. Skn1 subfamily. Contains 1 bZIP domain. |

Alternative products
| This entry describes 3 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select] | ||||||
| Isoform a (identifier: P34707-1) This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry. | ||||||
| Isoform b (identifier: P34707-2) The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows: 1-313: Missing. 314-389: FDNKQQHPVI...WLPTEVVPND → MSLPSDFASS...YSGVSSTFDR | ||||||
| Note: No experimental confirmation available. | ||||||
| Isoform c (identifier: P34707-3) The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows: 1-90: Missing. | ||||||
| Note: No experimental confirmation available. |
