The encoded protein is conserved among vertebrates and is a critical intrinsic regulator of photoceptor development and function. Mutations in this gene have been associated with retinitis pigmentosa and retinal degenerative diseases. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. * **UniProt Summary**: Acts as a transcriptional activator which regulates the expression of several rod-specific genes, including RHO and PDE6B (PubMed:21981118). Functions also as a transcriptional coactivator, stimulating transcription mediated by the transcription factor CRX and NR2E3 (PubMed:17335001). Binds in a sequence-specific manner to the rhodopsin promoter (PubMed:17335001). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17335001, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21981118}. |Maf N| |bZIP Maf| |positive regulation of rhodopsin gene expression| |regulation of rhodopsin gene expression| |retinal rod cell development| |leucine zipper domain binding| |eye photoreceptor cell development| |eye photoreceptor cell differentiation| |photoreceptor cell development| |promoter-specific chromatin binding| |photoreceptor cell differentiation| |eye morphogenesis| |visual perception| |sensory perception of light stimulus| |sensory organ morphogenesis| |transcription coactivator activity| |eye development| |visual system development| |sensory system development| |sequence-specific DNA binding| |DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific| |transcription by RNA polymerase II| |RNA polymerase II proximal promoter sequence-specific DNA binding| |sensory organ development| |transcription, DNA-templated| |nucleic acid-templated transcription| |RNA biosynthetic process| |DNA-binding transcription factor activity| |neuron development| |animal organ morphogenesis| |sensory perception| |neuron differentiation| |nucleobase-containing compound biosynthetic process| |heterocycle biosynthetic process| |aromatic compound biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II| |organic cyclic compound biosynthetic process| |nervous system process| |DNA binding| |generation of neurons| |positive regulation of transcription, DNA-templated| |DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific| |neurogenesis| |cellular nitrogen compound biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of nucleic acid-templated transcription| |positive regulation of RNA biosynthetic process| |cell development| |RNA metabolic process| |cellular macromolecule biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of RNA metabolic process| |macromolecule biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process| |positive regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process| |system process| |positive regulation of cellular biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of gene expression| |gene expression| |positive regulation of biosynthetic process| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp459|Bleomycin 5μM R08 exp459]]|-2.2| |[[:results:exp478|Doxorubicin 0.02μM R08 exp478]]|-1.83| |[[:results:exp234|Ethanol 0.01 R05 exp234]]|-1.79| |[[:results:exp494|Isoniazid 100μM R08 exp494]]|1.97| ^Gene^Correlation^ |[[:human genes:h:hgc6.3|HGC6.3]]|0.478| Global Fraction of Cell Lines Where Essential: 0/739 ^Tissue^Fraction Of Cell Lines Where Essential^ |1290807.0|0/1| |909776.0|0/1| |bile duct|0/28| |blood|0/28| |bone|0/26| |breast|0/33| |central nervous system|0/56| |cervix|0/4| |colorectal|0/17| |esophagus|0/13| |fibroblast|0/1| |gastric|0/16| |kidney|0/21| |liver|0/20| |lung|0/75| |lymphocyte|0/16| |ovary|0/26| |pancreas|0/24| |peripheral nervous system|0/16| |plasma cell|0/15| |prostate|0/1| |skin|0/24| |soft tissue|0/9| |thyroid|0/2| |upper aerodigestive|0/22| |urinary tract|0/29| |uterus|0/5| == Essentiality in NALM6 == * **Essentiality Rank**: 12534 * **Expression level (log2 read counts)**: 0.86 {{:chemogenomics:nalm6 dist.png?nolink |}}
