Early boundary activity protein 1

UniProtKB accession:  Q9VR17

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  The heterotrimeric Elba complex is required for chromatin domain boundary function during early embryogenesis. It binds to a 8-bp sequence 5'-CCAATAAG-3' in the Fab-7 insulator or boundary element in the bithorax complex and contributes to its insulator or boundary activity (PubMed:23240086). Elba1 may act as a transcriptional repressor and binds the palindromic sequence 5'-CCAATTGG-3' to mediate transcriptional repression (PubMed:25561495).
