UniProt functional annotation for O14776

UniProt code: O14776.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
 
Function: Transcription factor that binds RNA polymerase II and inhibits the elongation of transcripts from target promoters. Regulates transcription elongation in a TATA box-dependent manner. Necessary for TAT-dependent activation of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) promoter. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11604498, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9315662}.
 
Subunit: Binds formin (By similarity). Interacts (via the second WW domain) with TREX1 (via proline-rich region) (By similarity). Binds RNA polymerase II, HD and SF1. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10908677, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11172033, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11604498, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15485897, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9315662}.
Subcellular location: Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10908677, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15485897, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9315662}.
Tissue specificity: Detected in brain neurons. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11172033}.
Induction: Up-regulated in brain tissue from patients with Huntington disease. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11172033}.
Domain: The FF domains bind the phosphorylated C-terminus of the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II, probably mediate interaction with HTATSF1 and preferentially bind peptides with the consensus sequence [DE](2-5)-[FWY]-[DE](2-5).
Domain: The WW domains bind Pro-rich domains.
Sequence caution: Sequence=BAD93147.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Extended N-terminus.; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
