MKL/myocardin-like protein 1, Megakaryoblastic leukemia 1 protein, Megakaryocytic acute leukemia protein, Myocardin-related transcription factor A, MRTF-A, MKL1, KIAA1438, MAL
Product description
The protein encoded by this gene interacts with the
transcription factor myocardin, a key regulator of smooth muscle
cell differentiation. The encoded protein is predominantly nuclear
and may help transduce signals from the cytoskeleton to the
nucleus. This gene is involved in a specific translocation event
that creates a fusion of this gene and the RNA-binding motif
protein-15 gene. This translocation has been associated with acute
megakaryocytic leukemia.1) Gilles, L., et al. Blood 114(19):4221-4232(2009)
