PIR - pirin Gene
Species: Homo sapiens
About PIR
This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants) and 181 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in fat (RPKM 9.0), urinary bladder (RPKM 8.0) and 24 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the cupin superfamily. The encoded protein is an Fe(II)-containing nuclear protein expressed in all tissues of the body and concentrated within dot-like subnuclear structures. Interactions with nuclear factor I/CCAAT box transcription factor as well as B cell lymphoma 3-encoded oncoprotein suggest the encoded protein may act as a transcriptional cofactor and be involved in the regulation of DNA transcription and replication. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
