GO curators for mouse genes have assigned the following annotations to the gene product of Trps1. (This text reflects annotations as of Wednesday, January 23, 2013.) Summary from NCBI RefSeq
[Summary is not available for the mouse gene. This summary is for the human ortholog.] This gene encodes a transcription factor that represses GATA-regulated genes and binds to a dynein light chain protein. Binding of the encoded protein to the dynein light chain protein affects binding to GATA consensus sequences and suppresses its transcriptional activity. Defects in this gene are a cause of tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome (TRPS) types I-III. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]Summary text based on GO annotations supported by experimental evidence in mouse
The gene product of Trps1 has been shown to bind to the gene products of Ctbp2, Gli3, Rnf4. [1, 2, 3] Researchers have inferred, based on physical interactions, that the gene product of Trps1
participates in the following biological processes:
