Name | PAXBP1 |
---|---|
Synonyms | C21orf66, GCFC, GCFC1 |
Function | Adapter protein linking the transcription factors PAX3 and PAX7 to the histone methylation machinery and involved in myogenesis. Associates with a histone methyltransferase complex that specifically mediates dimethylation and trimethylation of 'Lys-4' of histone H3. Mediates the recruitment of that complex to the transcription factors PAX3 and PAX7 on chromatin to regulate the expression of genes involved in muscle progenitor cells proliferation including ID3 and CDC20. |
Cellular Location | Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P58501}. |

Background
Partial homology to a transcriptional repressor and histone-interacting protein suggests that GCFC is involved in the regulation of transcription. it GCFC binds to the GC-rich sequences (5'-gcggggc-3') present in the epidermal growth factor receptor, beta-actin, and calcium-dependent protease promoters.
