Sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1

UniProtKB accession:  P36956

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Precursor of the transcription factor form (Processed sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1), which is embedded in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane (PubMed:32322062). Low sterol concentrations promote processing of this form, releasing the transcription factor form that translocates into the nucleus and activates transcription of genes involved in cholesterol biosynthesis and lipid homeostasis (By similarity).
