ID:NC2A_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Dr1-associated corepressor; AltName: Full=Dr1-associated protein 1; AltName: Full=Negative co-factor 2-alpha; Short=NC2-alpha; FUNCTION: The association of the DR1/DRAP1 heterodimer with TBP results in a functional repression of both activated and basal transcription of class II genes. This interaction precludes the formation of a transcription-competent complex by inhibiting the association of TFIIA and/or TFIIB with TBP. Can bind to DNA on its own. SUBUNIT: Heterodimer with DR1. Binds BTAF1. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus (Potential). TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitous. Highly expressed in adult testis, heart, skeletal muscle, pancreas and brain, and in fetal brain, liver and kidney. PTM: Phosphorylation reduces DNA binding, but has no effect on heterodimerization and TBP binding. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the NC2 alpha/DRAP1 family. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 histone-fold domain.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

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.
