It is thought to act by increasing the expression of genes that effect myelin production but may also directly promote myelin gene expression. Loss of a similar gene in mouse models results in severe demyelination. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014]. * **<color #00a2e8>UniProt Summary</color>**: Myelin regulatory factor: Constitutes a precursor of the transcription factor. Mediates the autocatalytic cleavage that releases the Myelin regulatory factor, N-terminal component that specifically activates transcription of central nervous system (CNS) myelin genes (PubMed:23966832). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23966832}. Myelin regulatory factor, N-terminal: Transcription factor that specifically activates expression of myelin genes such as MBP, MOG, MAG, DUSP15 and PLP1 during oligodendrocyte (OL) maturation, thereby playing a central role in oligodendrocyte maturation and CNS myelination. Specifically recognizes and binds DNA sequence 5'-CTGGYAC-3' in the regulatory regions of myelin- specific genes and directly activates their expression. Not only required during oligodendrocyte differentiation but is also required on an ongoing basis for the maintenance of expression of myelin genes and for the maintenance of a mature, viable oligodendrocyte phenotype (PubMed:23966832). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23966832}. <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='Pfam_Domains'>Pfam Domains</button> <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='GO_terms'>GO Terms</button> <modal id='Pfam_Domains' size='lg' title='Pfam Domains'> |NDT80 PhoG| </modal> <modal id='GO_terms' size='lg' title='GO Terms'> |central nervous system myelin maintenance| |myelin maintenance| |protein autoprocessing| |positive regulation of myelination| |axon ensheathment in central nervous system| |central nervous system myelination| |oligodendrocyte development| |regulation of myelination| |positive regulation of nervous system process| |oligodendrocyte differentiation| |peptidase activity| |plasma membrane organization| |myelination| |glial cell development| |axon ensheathment| |ensheathment of neurons| |regulation of nervous system process| |protein processing| |glial cell differentiation| |gliogenesis| |protein maturation| |sequence-specific DNA binding| |endomembrane system organization| |positive regulation of nervous system development| |regulation of system process| |DNA-binding transcription factor activity| |membrane organization| |regulation of nervous system development| |endoplasmic reticulum membrane| |central nervous system development| |Golgi apparatus| |proteolysis| |positive regulation of developmental process| |positive regulation of transcription, DNA-templated| |DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific| |neurogenesis| |positive regulation of nucleic acid-templated transcription| |positive regulation of RNA biosynthetic process| |cell development| |positive regulation of RNA metabolic process| |positive regulation of multicellular organismal process| |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| |gene expression| |positive regulation of biosynthetic process| </modal> \\ === CRISPR Data === <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Compound_Hit'>Compound Hit</button> <button type='default' size='small' modal='Most_Correlated_Genes'>Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics</button> <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Essential_Avana'>Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)</button> <modal id='Compound_Hit' size='lg' title='Compound Hit'> ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp331|A-769662 20μM R07 exp331]]|-1.86| |[[:results:exp333|All-trans-Retinoic-Acid 8μM R07 exp333]]|-1.79| |[[:results:exp356|Docosahexaenoic-acid 50μM R07 exp356]]|-1.75| |[[:results:exp422|Wiskostatin 3μM R07 exp422]]|-1.74| |[[:results:exp244|SB743921 0.001μM R05 exp244]]|1.7| |[[:results:exp514|Phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate 0.57μM R08 exp514]]|1.77| |[[:results:exp61|YM155 0.0002μM R01 exp61]]|1.77| |[[:results:exp527|Tanespimycin 14μM R08 exp527]]|2.13| |[[:results:exp465|Cannabidiol 13μM R08 exp465]]|2.18| </modal> <modal id='Most_Correlated_Genes' size='lg' title='Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics'> No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics. </modal> <modal id='Essential_Avana' size='lg' title='Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)'> Global Fraction of Cell Lines Where Essential: 6/739 ^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|1/21| |liver|1/20| |lung|0/75| |lymphocyte|0/16| |ovary|1/26| |pancreas|1/24| |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|2/5| </modal> == Essentiality in NALM6 == * **<color #00a2e8>Essentiality Rank</color>**: 17103 * **<color #00a2e8>Expression level (log2 read counts)</color>**: 0.94 <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Dist_expr'>Expression Distribution</button> <modal id='Dist_expr' size='lg' title='MYRF Expression in NALM6 Cells: 0.94'> {{:chemogenomics:nalm6 dist.png?nolink |}} </modal> Last modified: 2026/01/07 22:36by 127.0.0.1
