Function

Transcriptional regulator involved in different processes such as glucose metabolism, aerobic glycolysis and autophagy (By similarity). Recognizes and binds the forkhead DNA sequence motif (5'-GTAAACA-3') and can both act as a transcription activator or repressor, depending on the context (PubMed:22083952, PubMed:25451922). Together with FOXK1, acts as a key regulator of metabolic reprogramming towards aerobic glycolysis, a process in which glucose is converted to lactate in the presence of oxygen (By similarity). Acts by promoting expression of enzymes for glycolysis (such as hexokinase-2 (HK2), phosphofructokinase, pyruvate kinase (PKLR) and lactate dehydrogenase), while suppressing further oxidation of pyruvate in the mitochondria by up-regulating pyruvate dehydrogenase kinases PDK1 and PDK4 (By similarity). Probably plays a role in gluconeogenesis during overnight fasting, when lactate from white adipose tissue and muscle is the main substrate (By similarity). Together with FOXK1, acts as a negative regulator of autophagy in skeletal muscle: in response to starvation, enters the nucleus, binds the promoters of autophagy genes and represses their expression, preventing proteolysis of skeletal muscle proteins (By similarity). In addition to the 5'-GTAAACA-3' DNA motif, also binds the 5'-TGANTCA-3' palindromic DNA motif, and co-associates with JUN/AP-1 to activate transcription (PubMed:22083952). Also able to bind to a minimal DNA heteroduplex containing a G/T-mismatch with 5'-TRT[G/T]NB-3' sequence (PubMed:20097901). Binds to NFAT-like motifs (purine-rich) in the IL2 promoter (PubMed:1339390). Positively regulates WNT/beta-catenin signaling by translocating DVL proteins into the nucleus (PubMed:25805136). Also binds to HIV-1 long terminal repeat. May be involved in both positive and negative regulation of important viral and cellular promoter elements (PubMed:1909027). Accessory component of the polycomb repressive deubiquitinase (PR-DUB) complex; recruits the PR-DUB complex to specific FOXK2-bound genes (PubMed:24634419, PubMed:30664650).

Activity summary

The protein Interleukin Enhancer Binding Factor 1 (ILF1) also known as Nuclear Factor of Activated T-cells 90 (NF90) plays an essential role in the regulation of gene expression. ILF1 has a mass of approximately 90 kDa (kilodaltons) and is ubiquitously expressed in various tissues including the spleen and the thymus. The protein consists of two distinct ribonucleoprotein (RNP) motifs that allow it to bind RNA sequences effectively making it an important factor in controlling mRNA stability and transport.

Biological function summary

ILF1 influences several cellular processes related to RNA dynamics by engaging in RNA splicing export and translation regulation. It doesn't function alone but rather forms complexes with other proteins such as the nuclear factor 45 (NF45). Through these interactions ILF1 contributes actively to cellular stress responses influencing protein synthesis under stress conditions and aiding in regulating cytokine production.

Pathways

ILF1 intricately integrates into cellular pathways like the NF-κB signaling pathway and the T-cell receptor signaling pathway. In these contexts it interacts with proteins such as IκB kinase (IKK) and T-cell receptor-associated proteins playing a part in transcriptional regulation and immune response modulation. ILF1's involvement in these pathways highlights its importance in cellular adaptation and survival in response to external stressors and pathogens.

Associated diseases and disorders

ILF1 is associated with conditions such as viral infections and cancer. In viral infections the protein interacts with viral RNAs impacting viral replication and host cell responses. In cancer ILF1's aberrant regulation could promote tumor progression by affecting cell proliferation and apoptosis pathways as seen in its relationship with proteins like p53 and Bcl-2. As a potential biomarker and therapeutic target understanding ILF1's pathological connections could improve diagnostic and treatment strategies for these diseases.
