Swiss-port # P17096 Human High mobility group protein HMG-I/HMG-Y |
|---|---|
| Background | This gene encodes a non-histone protein involved in many cellular processes, including regulation of inducible gene transcription, integration of retroviruses into chromosomes, and the metastatic progression of cancer cells. The encoded protein preferentially binds to the minor groove of A+T-rich regions in double-stranded DNA. It has little secondary structure in solution but assumes distinct conformations when bound to substrates such as DNA or other proteins. The encoded protein is frequently acetylated and is found in the nucleus. At least seven transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene.

| Research Area | Cancer antibody; Gene Regulation antibody; Microbiology and Infectious Disease antibody |
| Calculated MW | 12 kDa |
| PTM | Constitutively phosphorylated on two or three sites. Hyperphosphorylated at early stages of apoptosis, followed by dephosphorylation and methylation, which coincides with chromatin condensation. Isoforms HMG-I and HMG-Y can be phosphorylated by HIPK2. Phosphorylation of HMG-I at Ser-36, Thr-53 and Thr-78 and of HMG-Y at Thr-42 and Thr-67 by HIPK2 modulates DNA-binding affinity. HMG-Y is not methylated. Methylation at Arg-58 is mutually exclusive with methylation at Arg-60. |
