DNA/RNA
Description
The gene encoding human Rel has 11 exons spanning ~ 40 kb. The promoter region of rel gene contains five NF-kB binding sites and six Sp1 binding sites, and a number of AP2 sites. Thus, the expression of rel gene might be through autoregulation along with certain stress signals.
Proteins
Expression
wide.
Localisation
cytosol, nuclei after activation.
Function
regulation of the genes involved in cell-to-cell interaction, intercellular communication, cell recruitment or transmigration, amplification or spreading of primary pathogenic signals, cell apoptosis, and initiation or acceleration of tumorigenesis. Interaction with: members of IkB family and Rel family; MKK4; c-Fos; c-Jun; UBE2; PPP4C.
Implicated in
Entity name
cancer, autoimmune arthritis, glomerulonephritis, asthma, inflammatory bowel disease, septic shock, lung fibrosis, HTLV-1 infection, and AIDS.
Oncogenesis
Amplification of rel locus was frequently noted in a number of lymphomas.
Note
Only one report suggested the rearrangement of rel gene in certain type of lymphomas. This rearrangement of rel gene resulted in the deletion of the C-terminal domain of Rel and the fusion of the RHD of Rel with Nrg.
