Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables DNA binding activity; DNA-binding transcription factor activity; and RNA polymerase II-specific DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity. Contributes to sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including determination of adult lifespan; positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and social behavior. Located in nucleus. Part of RNA polymerase II transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in several structures, including anal region; epithelial system; gonadal primordium; nervous system; and vulva. Used to study cardiovascular system disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in renal cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human ARNT (aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator) and ARNT2 (aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator 2).
WB Description
aha-1 encodes an ortholog of human aryl-hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator; AHA-1 interacts with AHR-1 and HIF-1 in vitro, requires HIF-1 for proper localization, and is expressed ubiquitously; AHA-1 also physically interacts with CKY-1, and when co-expressed in vitro, an AHA-1/CKY-1 complex exhibits sequence-specific DNA binding; when co-expressed in cultured cells, the AHA-1/CKY-1 complex can stimulate reporter gene transcription;
