PTTG1IP PTTG1 interacting protein

Gene ID: 754, updated on 2-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: PBF; C21orf1; C21orf3; PTTG1IP1

Summary

This gene encodes a single-pass type I integral membrane protein, which binds to pituitary tumor-transforming 1 protein (PTTG1), and facilitates translocation of PTTG1 into the nucleus. Coexpression of this protein and PTTG1 induces transcriptional activation of basic fibroblast growth factor. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.
