Tripartite motif-containing 28 (TRIM28), also known as transcriptional intermediary factor 1β (TIF1β) and KRAB-associated protein-1 (KAP1), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TRIM28 gene.
Tripartite motif-containing 28 (TRIM28), also known as transcriptional intermediary factor 1β (TIF1β) and KRAB-associated protein-1 (KAP1), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TRIM28 gene.
== Function == The protein encoded by this gene mediates transcriptional regulation by interacting with the Krüppel-associated box (KRAB) repression domain found in many transcription factors. The protein localizes to the nucleus and is thought to associate with specific chromatin regions. TRIM28 is a member of the tripartite motif family. This tripartite motif includes three zinc-binding domains, a RING finger domain, a B-box type 1 and a B-box type 2, and a coiled-coil region. TRIM28 additionally possesses a domain that interacts with heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) and a bromodomain capable of recognizing acetylated lysine residues in other proteins.
