NCBI Summary for AFF4
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the AF4 family of transcription factors involved in leukemia. It is a component of the positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb) complex. A chromosomal translocation involving this gene and MLL gene on chromosome 11 is found in infant acute lymphoblastic leukemia with ins(5;11)(q31;q31q23). [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]
UniProt Comments for AFF4
MCEF: a putative transcription factor. Component of the cyclin-dependent kinase pair (CDK9/cyclin-T1) complex, also called positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb). Genetic fusion of its gene with MLL has been observed in a subset of acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
Protein type: Oncoprotein; Transcription factor
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 5q31
Cellular Component: nucleoplasm; transcription elongation factor complex; mitochondrion; nucleolus; nucleus
Molecular Function: protein binding; transcription factor activity
Biological Process: transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; regulation of transcription, DNA-dependent; spermatid development
Disease: Chops Syndrome
