  ID: AATF_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Protein AATF; AltName: Full=Apoptosis-antagonizing transcription factor; AltName: Full=Rb-binding protein Che-1;
FUNCTION: May function as a general inhibitor of the histone deacetylase HDAC1. Binding to the pocket region of RB1 may displace HDAC1 from RB1/E2F complexes, leading to activation of E2F target genes and cell cycle progression. Conversely, displacement of HDAC1 from SP1 bound to the CDKN1A promoter leads to increased expression of this CDK inhibitor and blocks cell cycle progression. Also antagonizes PAWR mediated induction of aberrant amyloid peptide production in Alzheimer disease (presenile and senile dementia), although the molecular basis for this phenomenon has not been described to date.
SUBUNIT: Binds PAWR, POLR2J, RB1/RB, RBL1/P107, RBL2/P130, and SP1. May also bind MAPT.
INTERACTION: Q13315:ATM; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-372428, EBI-495465; O96017:CHEK2; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-372428, EBI-1180783; Q04206:RELA; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-372428, EBI-73886;
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus, nucleolus.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitously expressed. Expressed at high levels in brain, heart, kidney, placenta and thymus.
PTM: Hyperphosphorylated during the G1/S phase transition.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the AATF family.
SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAD52016.1; Type=Frameshift; Positions=355, 365, 487, 498, 503;

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.

-  Orthologous Genes in Other Species
  Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
