SPI1 Spi-1 proto-oncogene

Gene ID: 6688, updated on 5-Mar-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: OF; PU.1; AGM10; SFPI1; SPI-1; SPI-A

Summary

This gene encodes an ETS-domain transcription factor that activates gene expression during myeloid and B-lymphoid cell development. The nuclear protein binds to a purine-rich sequence known as the PU-box found near the promoters of target genes, and regulates their expression in coordination with other transcription factors and cofactors. The protein can also regulate alternative splicing of target genes. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
