SP1
protein-codingSp1 transcription factor, the group of Zinc fingers C2H2-type|Sp transcription factors
Gene summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a zinc finger transcription factor that binds to GC-rich motifs of many promoters. The encoded protein is involved in many cellular processes, including cell differentiation, cell growth, apoptosis, immune responses, response to DNA damage, and chromatin remodeling. Post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation, acetylation, glycosylation, and proteolytic processing significantly affect the activity of this protein, which can be an activator or a repressor. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type
Statistics based on transcript NM_138473.3. Only rare variants are included.
We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.
Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

- Function
- FUNCTION: Transcription factor that can activate or repress transcription in response to physiological and pathological stimuli. Binds with high affinity to GC-rich motifs and regulates the expression of a large number of genes involved in a variety of processes such as cell growth, apoptosis, differentiation and immune responses. Highly regulated by post-translational modifications (phosphorylations, sumoylation, proteolytic cleavage, glycosylation and acetylation). Binds also the PDGFR- alpha G-box promoter. May have a role in modulating the cellular response to DNA damage. Implicated in chromatin remodeling. Plays an essential role in the regulation of FE65 gene expression. In complex with ATF7IP, maintains telomerase activity in cancer cells by inducing TERT and TERC gene expression. Isoform 3 is a stronger activator of transcription than isoform 1. Positively regulates the transcription of the core clock component ARNTL/BMAL1 (PubMed:10391891, PubMed:11371615, PubMed:11904305, PubMed:14593115, PubMed:16377629, PubMed:16478997, PubMed:16943418, PubMed:17049555, PubMed:18171990, PubMed:18199680, PubMed:18239466, PubMed:18513490, PubMed:18619531, PubMed:19193796, PubMed:20091743, PubMed:21798247). Plays a role in the recruitment of SMARCA4/BRG1 on the c-FOS promoter. Plays a role in protecting cells against oxidative stress following brain injury by regulating the expression of RNF112 (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O89090, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q01714, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10391891, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11371615, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11904305, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14593115, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16377629, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16478997, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16943418, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17049555, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18171990, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18199680, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18239466, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18513490, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18619531, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19193796, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20091743, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21798247}.;
