Background Information | c-Myc (bHLHe39) is a transcription factor that regulates the expression of multiple genes involved in apoptosis, cell differentiation and cell proliferation. Active c-Myc is coupled to the MAX protein via c-Myc’s C-terminal helix-loop-helix leucine zipper (bHLHLZ) domain. The c-Myc-MAX heterodimer also interacts with a number of other transcription-related proteins including TRRAP, p107 and Miz-1, and c-Myc-MAX may indirectly regulate histone acetylases involved in chromatin remodeling to increase accessibility of transcriptional complexes to target DNA sequences. The expression of c-Myc is controlled by growth factors. Several studies have reported abnormal expression of c-Myc in various cancers including Burkitt’s lymphoma. |

Entrez Gene Number |
|
Entrez Gene Summary | The protein encoded by this gene is a multifunctional, nuclear phosphoprotein that plays a role in cell cycle progression, apoptosis and cellular transformation. It functions as a transcription factor that regulates transcription of specific target genes. Mutations, overexpression, rearrangement and translocation of this gene have been associated with a variety of hematopoietic tumors, leukemias and lymphomas, including Burkitt lymphoma. There is evidence to show that alternative translation initiations from an upstream, in-frame non-AUG (CUG) and a downstream AUG start site result in the production of two isoforms with distinct N-termini. The synthesis of non-AUG initiated protein is suppressed in Burkitts lymphomas, suggesting its importance in the normal function of this gene. |

UniProt Summary | FUNCTION: Participates in the regulation of gene transcription. Binds DNA in a non-specific manner, yet also specifically recognizes the core sequence 5-CAC[GA]TG-3. Seems to activate the transcription of growth-related genes. SUBUNIT STRUCTURE: Efficient DNA binding requires dimerization with another bHLH protein. Binds DNA as a heterodimer with MAX. Interacts with TAF1C and SPAG9. Interacts with PARP10. Interacts with KDM5A and KDM5B. Interacts (when phosphorylated at Thr-58 and Ser-62) with FBXW7. Interacts with PIM2. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus > nucleoplasm. Nucleus > nucleolus. POST-TRANSLATIONAL MODIFICATION: Phosphorylated by PRKDC. Phosphorylation at Thr-58 and Ser-62 by GSK3 is required for ubiquitination and degradation by the proteasome. Phosphorylation at Ser-329 by PIM2 leads to the stabilization of MYC. Phosphorylation at Ser-62 by CDK2 prevents Ras-induced senescence. Ubquitinated by the SCF(FBXW7) complex when phosphorylated at Thr-58 and Ser-62, leading to its degradation by the proteasome. In the nucleoplasm, ubiquitination is counteracted by USP28, which interacts with isoform 1 of FBXW7 (FBW7alpha), leading to its deubiquitination and preventing degradation. In the nucleolus, however, ubiquitination is not counteracted by USP28, due to the lack of interaction between isoform 4 of FBXW7 (FBW7gamma) and USP28, explaining the selective MYC degradation in the nucleolus. Also polyubiquitinated by the DCX(TRUSS) complex. INVOLVEMENT IN DISEASE: Note: Overexpression of MYC is implicated in the etiology of a variety of hematopoietic tumors. Note: A chromosomal aberration involving MYC may be a cause of a form of B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Translocation t(8;12)(q24;q22) with BTG1. Defects in MYC are a cause of Burkitt lymphoma (BL). A form of undifferentiated malignant lymphoma commonly manifested as a large osteolytic lesion in the jaw or as an abdominal mass. Note=Chromosomal aberrations involving MYC are usually found in Burkitt lymphoma. Translocations t(8;14), t(8;22) or t(2;8) which juxtapose MYC to one of the heavy or light chain immunoglobulin gene loci. BIOTECHNOLOGY USE: POU5F1/OCT4, SOX2, MYC/c-Myc and KLF4 are the four Yamanaka factors. When combined, these factors are sufficient to reprogram differenciated cells to an embryonic-like state designated iPS (induced pluripotent stem) cells. iPS cells exhibit the morphology and growth properties of ES cells and express ES cell marker genes. SEQUENCE SIMILARITIES: Contains 1 basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain. |
