DNA/RNA

The sequence numbering shown under the central diagram are according to Genebank accession no. NC000016 for SOCS1 DNA.
Description
The SOCS1 gene is divided in 2 exons. The exon 1 contains the 5untranslated region. The exon 2 contains part of 5untranslated region, the translation initiation ATG, the stop codon, and the 3untranslated region.
Transcription
The 1216 bases of human SOCS1 mRNA contains an open reading frame of 633 bases, resulting in a protein of 211 amino acid residues.
Proteins
Description
The SOCS1 is a member of the STAT-induced STAT inhibitor (SSI), also known as suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS), family. The SSI family members are cytokine-inducible negative regulators of cytokine signaling. The SOCS1 possesses tumor suppressor function.
Localisation
Cytoplasmic.
Function
The SOCS1 functions downstream of cytokine receptors, and takes part in a negative feedback loop to attenuate cytokine signaling. The SOCS1 is rapidly induced following stimulation by several type I and type II cytokines, and it attenuates their signaling by its ability to bind and inhibit all four of the Janus family of intracellular tyrosine kinases (JAKs). The SOCS1 functions as a negative regulator in TNF-induced inflammation and activation of c-jun N-terminal kinase by mediating ASK1 degradation in endothelial cells. The SOCS-1 is found to colocalize and biochemically copurify with the microtubule organizing complex (MTOC) and its associated 20S proteasome. The SOCS-1 SH2 domain is required for the localization of SOCS-1 to the MTOC and targets Jak1 to a perinuclear distribution resembling the MTOC-associated 20S proteasome.
Mutations
Note
Mutations of the tumor suppressor gene SOCS-1 in classical Hodgkin lymphoma and primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma are frequent.
