Name

EGR1 Gene

early growth response 1

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the EGR family of C2H2-type zinc-finger proteins. It is a nuclear protein and functions as a transcriptional regulator. The products of target genes it activates are required for differentitation and mitogenesis. Studies suggest this is a cancer suppressor gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014]

NAB1 Gene

NGFI-A binding protein 1 (EGR1 binding protein 1)

Predicted to enable transcription coregulator activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Predicted to act upstream of or within endochondral ossification; nervous system development; and regulation of epidermis development. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

NAB2 Gene

NGFI-A binding protein 2 (EGR1 binding protein 2)

This gene encodes a member of the family of NGFI-A binding (NAB) proteins, which function in the nucleus to repress transcription induced by some members of the EGR (early growth response) family of transactivators. NAB proteins can homo- or hetero-multimerize with other EGR or NAB proteins through a conserved N-terminal domain, and repress transcription through two partially redundant C-terminal domains. Transcriptional repression by the encoded protein is mediated in part by interactions with the nucleosome remodeling and deactylase (NuRD) complex. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described, but their biological validity has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

TOE1 Gene

target of EGR1, member 1 (nuclear)

Enables poly(A)-specific ribonuclease activity and snRNA binding activity. Involved in snRNA 3'-end processing. Located in Cajal body and cytoplasm. Implicated in pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 7. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]
