DEFINITION

Max-interacting protein 1 (228 aa, ~26 kDa) is encoded by the human MXI1 gene. This protein plays a role in transcription factor binding and transcriptional repression.

DesignNote

MAX Interacting Protein 1, encoded by the MXI1 gene, is a transcriptional repressor thought to negatively regulate MYC function, and is therefore a potential tumor suppressor. This protein inhibits the transcriptional activity of MYC by competing for MAX, another basic helix-loop-helix protein that binds to MYC and is required for its function.
