Human Gene GLI1 (ENST00000228682.7) from GENCODE V44
  Description: Homo sapiens GLI family zinc finger 1 (GLI1), transcript variant 1, mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_005269)
RefSeq Summary (NM_005269): This gene encodes a member of the Kruppel family of zinc finger proteins. The encoded transcription factor is activated by the sonic hedgehog signal transduction cascade and regulates stem cell proliferation. The activity and nuclear localization of this protein is negatively regulated by p53 in an inhibitory loop. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2009].

  ID: GLI1_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Zinc finger protein GLI1; AltName: Full=Glioma-associated oncogene; AltName: Full=Oncogene GLI;
FUNCTION: Acts as a transcriptional activator. May regulate the transcription of specific genes during normal development. May play a role in craniofacial development and digital development, as well as development of the central nervous system and gastrointestinal tract. Mediates SHH signaling and thus cell proliferation and differentiation.
SUBUNIT: Interacts with KIF7 (By similarity). Interacts with ZIC1; the interaction enhances transcription activation.
INTERACTION: Q96J02:ITCH; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-308084, EBI-1564678; Q9QZS3-2:Numb (xeno); NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-308084, EBI-3896014; P23443:RPS6KB1; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-308084, EBI-1775921; P23443-2:RPS6KB1; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-308084, EBI-6093204; Q9UMX1:SUFU; NbExp=5; IntAct=EBI-308084, EBI-740595; Q9UMX1-1:SUFU; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-308084, EBI-740615; Q9UMX1-2:SUFU; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-308084, EBI-740621; P46684:Zic1 (xeno); NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-308084, EBI-308006;
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Note=Tethered in the cytoplasm by binding to SUFU. Activation and translocation to the nucleus is promoted by interaction with STK36. Phosphorylation by ULK3 may promote nuclear localization. Translocation to the nucleus is promoted by interaction with ZIC1.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Testis, myometrium and fallopian tube. Also expressed in the brain with highest expression in the cerebellum, optic nerve and olfactory tract.
INDUCTION: Amplified in glioblastoma cells.
PTM: Phosphorylated in vitro by ULK3.
PTM: Acetylation at Lys-518 down-regulates transcriptional activity. Deacetylated by HDAC1.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the GLI C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family.
SIMILARITY: Contains 5 C2H2-type zinc fingers.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.

-  Orthologous Genes in Other Species
  Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
