ID:ELP1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Elongator complex protein 1; Short=ELP1; AltName: Full=IkappaB kinase complex-associated protein; Short=IKK complex-associated protein; AltName: Full=p150; FUNCTION: May act as a scaffold protein that may assemble active IKK-MAP3K14 complexes (IKKA, IKKB and MAP3K14/NIK). FUNCTION: Acts as subunit of the RNA polymerase II elongator complex, which is a histone acetyltransferase component of the RNA polymerase II (Pol II) holoenzyme and is involved in transcriptional elongation. Elongator may play a role in chromatin remodeling and is involved in acetylation of histones H3 and probably H4. Involved in cell migration. SUBUNIT: Interacts preferentially with MAP3K14/NIK followed by IKK-alpha and IKK-beta. Component of the RNA polymerase II elongator complex (Elongator), which consists of IKBKAP/ELP1, STIP1/ELP2, ELP3, ELP4, ELP5 and ELP6. Elongator associates with the C-terminal domain (CTD) of Pol II largest subunit. Interacts with ELP3. INTERACTION: Q9H9T3:ELP3; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-347559, EBI-355217; P42858:HTT; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-347559, EBI-466029; Q15306:IRF4; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-347559, EBI-751345; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Nucleus. DISEASE: Defects in IKBKAP are the cause of hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type 3 (HSAN3) [MIM:223900]; also known as Riley-Day syndrome or familial dysautonomia (FD). This autosomal recessive disorder is due to the poor development and survival, and progressive degeneration of the sensory, sympathetic and parasympathetic neurons. HSAN3 individuals are affected with a variety of symptoms such as decreased sensitivity to pain and temperature, cardiovascular instability, recurrent pneumonias, vomiting crises, and gastrointestinal dysfunction. It is primarily confined to individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent, with an incidence of 1/3'600 live births. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ELP1/IKA1 family.

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.
