ID:UBF1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Nucleolar transcription factor 1; AltName: Full=Autoantigen NOR-90; AltName: Full=Upstream-binding factor 1; Short=UBF-1; FUNCTION: Recognizes the ribosomal RNA gene promoter and activates transcription mediated by RNA polymerase I through cooperative interactions with the transcription factor SL1/TIF-IB complex. It binds specifically to the upstream control element. SUBUNIT: Homodimer. Interacts with TBP. Interacts with RASL11A, TAF1A and TAF1D. Binds to IRS1 and PIK3CA (By similarity). Interacts with DHX33. INTERACTION: P01106:MYC; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-396235, EBI-447544; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus, nucleolus (By similarity). PTM: Phosphorylated and activated by PIK3CA (By similarity). SIMILARITY: Contains 6 HMG box DNA-binding domains.
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.
