In response to cytokines and growth factors, STAT family members are phosphorylated by the receptor associated kinases, and then form homo- or heterodimers that translocate to the cell nucleus where they act as transcription activators. In response to interferon (IFN), this protein forms a complex with STAT1 and IFN regulatory factor family protein p48 (ISGF3G), in which this protein acts as a transactivator, but lacks the ability to bind DNA directly. Transcription adaptor P300/CBP (EP300/CREBBP) has been shown to interact specifically with this protein, which is thought to be involved in the process of blocking IFN-alpha response by adenovirus. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]. * **UniProt Summary**: Signal transducer and activator of transcription that mediates signaling by type I IFNs (IFN-alpha and IFN-beta). Following type I IFN binding to cell surface receptors, Jak kinases (TYK2 and JAK1) are activated, leading to tyrosine phosphorylation of STAT1 and STAT2. The phosphorylated STATs dimerize, associate with IRF9/ISGF3G to form a complex termed ISGF3 transcription factor, that enters the nucleus. ISGF3 binds to the IFN stimulated response element (ISRE) to activate the transcription of interferon stimulated genes, which drive the cell in an antiviral state (PubMed:9020188, PubMed:23391734). Acts as a regulator of mitochondrial fission by modulating the phosphorylation of DNM1L at 'Ser-616' and 'Ser-637' which activate and inactivate the GTPase activity of DNM1L respectively (PubMed:26122121). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23391734, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26122121, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9020188}. |STAT bind| |STAT2 C| |SH2| |STAT int| |STAT alpha| |ubiquitin-like protein ligase binding| |regulation of mitochondrial fission| |receptor signaling pathway via JAK-STAT| |receptor signaling pathway via STAT| |cellular response to type I interferon| |type I interferon signaling pathway| |response to type I interferon| |regulation of mitochondrion organization| |defense response to virus| |response to virus| |response to peptide hormone| |DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific| |response to peptide| |RNA polymerase II proximal promoter sequence-specific DNA binding| |cytokine-mediated signaling pathway| |viral process| |innate immune response| |symbiotic process| |interspecies interaction between organisms| |response to hormone| |defense response to other organism| |response to organonitrogen compound| |cellular response to cytokine stimulus| |regulation of anatomical structure morphogenesis| |identical protein binding| |response to nitrogen compound| |immune effector process| |response to cytokine| |positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II| |regulation of organelle organization| |response to other organism| |response to external biotic stimulus| |response to biotic stimulus| |defense response| |regulation of protein phosphorylation| |response to endogenous stimulus| |positive regulation of transcription, DNA-templated| |response to oxygen-containing compound| |DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific| |regulation of phosphorylation| |regulation of cell population proliferation| |positive regulation of nucleic acid-templated transcription| |positive regulation of RNA biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of RNA metabolic process| |regulation of phosphate metabolic process| |regulation of phosphorus metabolic process| |regulation of protein modification process| |immune response| |positive regulation of nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process| |positive regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of cellular biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of gene expression| |positive regulation of biosynthetic process| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp30|Rapamycin 10μM R00 exp30]]|-2.06| |[[:results:exp520|Rucaparib 6.5μM R08 exp520]]|-1.93| |[[:results:exp489|Hippuristanol 0.12μM R08 exp489 no dilution day6]]|-1.85| |[[:results:exp162|BI-D1870 2μM R04 exp162]]|-1.75| |[[:results:exp495|IWR1 50μM R08 exp495]]|-1.75| |[[:results:exp535|Trimetrexate 0.03μM R08 exp535]]|1.85| ^Gene^Correlation^ |[[:human genes:r:rrm1|RRM1]]|0.519| 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**: 14380 * **Expression level (log2 read counts)**: 6.24 {{:chemogenomics:nalm6 dist.png?nolink |}}
