Function
- transcriptional factor
- may have pleiotropic effects during embryogenesis & in the adult
- efficient DNA binding requires dimerization with another bHLH protein
- heterodimer of SIM1 & ARNT
Structure
- contains 1 basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain
- contains 1 PAC (PAS-associated C-terminal) domain
- contains 2 PAS (PER-ARNT-SIM) domains
- contains 1 single-minded C-terminal domain
