{"symbol":"NFIL3","synonyms":["IL3BP1","E4BP4","NF-IL3A","NFIL3A"],"name":"nuclear factor, interleukin 3 regulated","description":"The protein encoded by this gene is a transcriptional regulator that binds as a homodimer to activating transcription factor (ATF) sites in many cellular and viral promoters. The encoded protein represses PER1 and PER2 expression and therefore plays a role in the regulation of circadian rhythm. Three transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
