Target Information

NF-1, also designated CTF, consists of a family of CCAAT box binding proteins that stimulate DNA replication and activate transcription. Analysis of human NF-1 messenger RNA has revealed two forms of the NF-1 protein arising from alternate splicing of a single NF-1 gene. NF-1 binds its consensus DNA element as a homodimer via an amino-terminal DNA binding domain and activates transcription through a proline-rich, carboxy terminal transactivation domain. The NF-1 protein recognizes and binds the adenovirus type 2 promoter and activates transcription of herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase genes. The NF-1 consensus element is found in upstream promoter regions of many eukaryotic genes, including Ha-Ras, alpha-globin, HSP70, GRP78, Histone H1, myelin basic protein, and Xenopus laevis vitellogenin gene promoter.
