| SIMILARITY | Belongs to the krueppel C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family. Hic subfamily.Contains 1 BTB (POZ) domain.Contains 5 C2H2-type zinc fingers. |
| SUBUNIT | Self-associates. Interacts with HIC2. Interacts with CTBP1 and CTBP2. Interacts with TCF7L2 and ARID1A. Interacts with MTA1 and MBD3; indicative for an association with the NuRD complex. |
| Post-translational modifications | Acetylated on several residues, including Lys-333. Lys-333 is deacetylated by SIRT1.Sumoylated on Lys-333 by a PIAS family member, which enhances interaction with MTA1, positively regulates transcriptional repression activity and is enhanced by HDAC4. |

| Background Descriptions | Hypermethylated in cancer (HIC-1) was originally identified as a target of p53-induced gene expression. HIC-1 is deleted in the genetic disorder Miller-Dieker syndrome (MDS), and the expression of HIC-1 is also frequently suppressed in leukemia and various cancers due to the hypermethylation of specific DNA regions and the resulting transcriptional silencing. These and other studies indicate that HIC-1 acts as a putative tumor suppressor protein that mediates transcriptional repression. HIC-1 is ubiquitously expressed in adult tissues and its structure is defined by five zinc fingers and an N-terminal broad complex POZ (or BTB) domain. In several BTB/POZ containing proteins, including BCL-6 and the promyelocytic leukemia zinc-finger (PLZF) oncoprotein, this domain interacts with the SMRT/N-CoR-mSin3A HDAC complex and is directly involved in repressing and silencing gene transcription. When this domain is deleted, as with the oncogenic PLZF-RAR chimera of promyelocytic leukemias, this transcriptional repression is attenuated. Conversely, HIC-1 does not interact with components of the HDAC complex, suggesting that HIC-1-induced transcriptional repression is unassociated with the POZ/BTB domain. |

| Synonyms | ZBTB29 |
| Function | Transcriptional repressor (PubMed:12052894, PubMed:15231840). Recognizes and binds to the consensus sequence '5- [CG]NG[CG]GGGCA[CA]CC-3' (PubMed:15231840). May act as a tumor suppressor (PubMed:20154726). Involved in development of head, face, limbs and ventral body wall (By similarity). Involved in down- regulation of SIRT1 and thereby is involved in regulation of p53/TP53- dependent apoptotic DNA-damage responses (PubMed:16269335). The specific target gene promoter association seems to be depend on corepressors, such as CTBP1 or CTBP2 and MTA1 (PubMed:12052894, PubMed:20547755). In cooperation with MTA1 (indicative for an association with the NuRD complex) represses transcription from CCND1/cyclin-D1 and CDKN1C/p57Kip2 specifically in quiescent cells (PubMed:20547755). Involved in regulation of the Wnt signaling pathway probably by association with TCF7L2 and preventing TCF7L2 and CTNNB1 association with promoters of TCF-responsive genes (PubMed:16724116). Seems to repress transcription from E2F1 and ATOH1 which involves ARID1A, indicative for the participation of a distinct SWI/SNF-type chromatin-remodeling complex (PubMed:18347096, PubMed:19486893). Probably represses transcription of ACKR3, FGFBP1 and EFNA1 (PubMed:16690027, PubMed:19525223, PubMed:20154726). |

Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.
