About REST

Cytogenetic location: 4q12 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 4:56,907,900-56,935,844 (from NCBI)

This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 226 orthologues, 29 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in bone marrow (RPKM 9.2), testis (RPKM 8.5) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene was initially identified as a transcriptional repressor that represses neuronal genes in non-neuronal tissues. However, depending on the cellular context, this gene can act as either an oncogene or a tumor suppressor. The encoded protein is a member of the Kruppel-type zinc finger transcription factor family. It represses transcription by binding a DNA sequence element called the neuron-restrictive silencer element. The protein is also found in undifferentiated neuronal progenitor cells and it is thought that this repressor may act as a master negative regulator of neurogenesis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, May 2018]
