Background
This gene encodes a protein that acts as a repressor of beta-interferon gene expression. The protein binds specifically to the PRDI (positive regulatory domain I element) of the beta-IFN gene promoter. Transcription of this gene increases upon virus induction. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different isoforms have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
Function
function:Transcriptional repressor that binds specifically to the PRDI element in the promoter of the beta-interferon gene. Drives the maturation of B-lymphocytes into Ig secreting cells.,similarity:Contains 1 SET domain.,similarity:Contains 4 C2H2-type zinc fingers.,subunit:Interacts with PRMT5.,
