Description

MYCBP (MYC binding protein) encodes a protein that binds to the N-terminal region of the MYC oncoprotein, enhancing MYC-mediated transcriptional activation. It is involved in cell cycle progression, proliferation, and apoptosis. MYCBP is widely expressed and has been implicated in various cancers and developmental processes.

Protein Summary

MYCBP is a 156-amino acid protein that contains a coiled-coil domain and interacts with the N-terminal transactivation domain of MYC. It enhances MYC's ability to activate transcription of target genes involved in cell growth and division. MYCBP also interacts with other proteins such as AMY-1 and may have roles in spermatogenesis and neuronal function.
