Helix-loop-helix protein 1; HEN-1; class A basic helix-loop-helix protein 35; bHLHa35; Nescient helix loop helix 1; NSCL-1 (NHLH1, BHLHA35, HEN1)

Function

• may serve as DNA-binding protein
• may be involved in control of cell-type determination, possibly within the developing nervous system
• efficient DNA binding requires dimerization with another bHLH protein

Structure

contains 1 basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain

Compartment

nucleus (putative)

More general terms

• basic helix loop helix (bHLH) family transcription factor
