Summary
Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. Involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; positive regulation of leucine biosynthetic process; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

NP_013556.3
  • Zinc-knuckle transcription factor, repressor and activator; regulates genes involved in branched chain amino acid biosynthesis and ammonia assimilation; acts as a repressor in leucine-replete conditions and as an activator in the presence of alpha-isopropylmalate, an intermediate in leucine biosynthesis that accumulates during leucine starvation
