HGNC id	7555

FLASH GENE DNA RNA EXPRESSION PROTEIN DISORDER ANIMAL & CELL MODELS

PROTEIN

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

STRUCTURE

motifs/domains

basic helix-loop-helix (HLH), leucine zipper domains

mono polymer

heteromer , dimer

HOMOLOGY

interspecies	homolog to avian myelocytomatosis viral (v-myc) oncogene 1
	ortholog to murine Lmyc1
	homolog to C.elegans Y75B8A.28

Homologene

FAMILY	basic helix-loop-helix (BHLH) family of transcription factors
	BHLH-ZIP subfamily

CATEGORY

transcription factor , protooncogene

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	intracellular
	intracellular,nucleus

basic FUNCTION	as well as MYC mutants (W136E and dN2), all of which have little transformation activity, promoted human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) generation more efficiently and specifically compared with MYC

CELLULAR PROCESS	cell life, proliferation/growth
	nucleotide, transcription, regulation

PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS

PATHWAY

metabolism

signaling

a component

heterodimerizing with MAX

INTERACTION

DNA	binds DNA as an
