This gene encodes a protein that homodimerizes and
functions as a transcription factor which activates the expression
of some key metabolic genes regulating cellular growth and nuclear
genes required for respiration, heme biosynthesis, and
mitochondrial DNA transcription and replication. The protein has
also been associated with the regulation of neurite outgrowth.
Alternate transcriptional splice variants, which encode the same
protein, have been characterized. Additional variants encoding
different protein isoforms have been described but they have not
been fully characterized. Confusion has occurred in bibliographic
databases due to the shared symbol of NRF1 for this gene and for
'nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 1' which has an official
symbol of NFE2L1.1) Gonen, N., et al. J. Biol. Chem. 285(44):33602-33613(2010)
