NFIB (Nuclear factor 1 B-type) is a protein that switches other genes on and off. In the public catalogues the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role. Tied to Breast cancer, Oral cavity cancer and Adenoid cystic carcinoma. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.

Biology

Transcriptional activator of GFAP, essential for proper brain development. Recognises and binds the palindromic sequence 5'-TTGGCNNNNNGCCAA-3' present in viral and cellular promoters and in the origin of replication of adenovirus type 2. These proteins are individually capable of activating transcription and replication. Location: Nucleus (UniProt). Locus 9p23-p22.3 (HGNC).
