General annotation (Comments)

Function

Acts as a transcriptional regulator that recognizes and binds to the sequence 5'-[GA]TTA[CT]GTAA[CT]-3', a sequence present in many cellular and viral promoters. Represses transcription from promoters with activating transcription factor (ATF) sites. Represses promoter activity in osteoblasts By similarity. Represses transcriptional activity of PER1 By similarity. Represses transcriptional activity of PER2 via the B-site on the promoter By similarity. Activates transcription from the interleukin-3 promoter in T-cells. Competes for the same consensus-binding site with PAR DNA-binding factors (DBP, HLF and TEF) By similarity. Component of the circadian clock that acts as a negative regulator for the circadian expression of PER2 oscillation in the cell-autonomous core clock By similarity. Protects pro-B cells from programmed cell death By similarity. Ref.1 Ref.2 Ref.9

Subunit structure

Homodimer. Binds DNA as a dimer. Interacts with DR1. Interacts with PER2 and CRY2 By similarity. Ref.1 Ref.9

Subcellular location

Nucleus By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Expressed in bladder stomach, thyroid, spinal cord, lymph node, trachea, adrenal gland, bone marrow and muscle. Ref.10

Induction

Up-regulated by PHA or TPA. Ref.2

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the bZIP family. NFIL3 subfamily.

Contains 1 bZIP (basic-leucine zipper) domain.
