ZFP36L1

Butyrate response factor 1 is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the ZFP36L1 is_associated_with::gene.

Function
This gene is a member of the TIS11 family of is_associated_with::early response genes. Family members are induced by various agonists such as the phorbol ester TPA and the polypeptide mitogen EGF. The gene is well conserved across species and has a promoter that contains motifs seen in other early-response genes. The encoded protein contains a distinguishing putative is_associated_with::zinc finger domain with a repeating cys-his motif. This putative nuclear is_associated_with::transcription factor most likely functions in regulating the response to is_associated_with::growth factors.

Interactions
ZFP36L1 has been shown to interact with is_associated_with::MAPK14.
