Gene(ID):
Expression:
Q8IZQ8 MYCD_HUMAN:

Expressed in heart, aorta, and in smooth muscle cell-containing tissues: stomach, bladder, small intestine, colon, lung, placenta and uterus. Very faint expression in prostate and skeletal muscle.

Description:
Transcriptional factor that uses the canonical single or multiple CArG boxes DNA sequence. Binds CArG boxes only in the presence of serum response factor (SRF). Acts as a cofactor of SRF and modulates SRF-target genes. Regulates the expression of a set of cardiac and smooth muscle-specific genes. Plays a crucial role in cardiogenesis and differentiation of the smooth muscle cell lineage.

Research Backgrounds

Function:

Smooth muscle cells (SM) and cardiac muscle cells-specific transcriptional factor which uses the canonical single or multiple CArG boxes DNA sequence. Acts as a cofactor of serum response factor (SRF) with the potential to modulate SRF-target genes. Plays a crucial role in cardiogenesis and differentiation of the smooth muscle cell lineage (myogenesis) (By similarity).

PTMs:

Phosphorylation regulates negatively the intrinsic myocardin transcriptional activity.

Subcellular Location:

Nucleus.

Extracellular region or secreted Cytosol Plasma membrane Cytoskeleton Lysosome Endosome Peroxisome ER Golgi apparatus Nucleus Mitochondrion Manual annotation Automatic computational assertionSubcellular location
Tissue Specificity:

Expressed in heart, aorta, and in smooth muscle cell-containing tissues: stomach, bladder, small intestine, colon, lung, placenta and uterus. Very faint expression in prostate and skeletal muscle.

Family&Domains:

The C-terminal region contains a general transcription activation domain. The N-terminal region, comprising a basic and a Gln-rich domain, confers transcriptional potency and specificity by mediating association with the MADS box of SRF. The basic domain may be required for nuclear localization. The SAP domain is important for transactivation and ternary complex formation (By similarity).

B, The binding of MBNL1 to Myocardin mRNA was validated using RIP. (n = 3, *, P < .05).

G and H, Myocardin mRNA residues after 0, 20, 40 and 60 min in cardiomyocytes treated with Actinomycin D (ACD, 5 μg/mL) and with overexpressed or silenced MBNL1were measured using realtime PCR. I, The 3'-UTR region of Myocardin mRNA was transcribed in vitro and labelled with biotin. The combination of MBNL1 protein and 3'-UTR of Myocardin was detected using RNA pulldown assay. J, The RNA probes corresponding to nine prediction sites (probe # 10-18) and their corresponding antisense probes (probe # 1-9) were synthesized and biotin-labelled. The combination site of MBNL1 protein in the 3'-UTR of Myocardin was confirmed using RNA pull-down assay
