DNA-binding protein inhibitor; inhibitor of DNA binding (ID)

Function

• ID (inhibitor of DNA binding) HLH proteins lack a basic DNA-binding domain but are able to form heterodimers with other HLH proteins, thereby inhibiting DNA binding
• heterodimer with other HLH proteins

Structure

contains basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain

Compartment

nucleus

More general terms

• nuclear protein

More specific terms

• DNA-binding protein inhibitor ID-1; inhibitor of DNA binding 1 (ID1)
• DNA-binding protein inhibitor ID-2; inhibitor of DNA binding 2 (ID2)
• DNA-binding protein inhibitor ID-3; inhibitor of DNA binding 3; ID-like protein inhibitor HLH 1R21; Helix-loop-helix protein HEIR-1 (ID3, 1R21, HEIR-1)
• DNA-binding protein inhibitor ID-4; inhibitor of DNA binding 4 (ID4)
