Human Gene NEUROD1 (uc002uof.4)
  Description: Homo sapiens neuronal differentiation 1 (NEUROD1), mRNA.
RefSeq Summary (NM_002500): This gene encodes a member of the NeuroD family of basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors. The protein forms heterodimers with other bHLH proteins and activates transcription of genes that contain a specific DNA sequence known as the E-box. It regulates expression of the insulin gene, and mutations in this gene result in type II diabetes mellitus. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].

  ID: NDF1_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Neurogenic differentiation factor 1; Short=NeuroD; Short=NeuroD1; AltName: Full=Class A basic helix-loop-helix protein 3; Short=bHLHa3;
FUNCTION: Acts as a transcriptional activator: mediates transcriptional activation by binding to E box-containing promoter consensus core sequences 5'-CANNTG-3'. Associates with the p300/CBP transcription coactivator complex to stimulate transcription of the secretin gene as well as the gene encoding the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor CDKN1A. Contributes to the regulation of several cell differentiation pathways, like those that promote the formation of early retinal ganglion cells, inner ear sensory neurons, granule cells forming either the cerebellum or the dentate gyrus cell layer of the hippocampus, endocrine islet cells of the pancreas and enteroendocrine cells of the small intestine. Together with PAX6 or SIX3, is required for the regulation of amacrine cell fate specification. Also required for dendrite morphogenesis and maintenance in the cerebellar cortex. Associates with chromatin to enhancer regulatory elements in genes encoding key transcriptional regulators of neurogenesis (By similarity).
SUBUNIT: Interacts (via helix-loop-helix motif domain) with EP300 (via C-terminus) (By similarity). Heterodimer with TCF3/E47; the heterodimer is inhibited in presence of ID2, but not NR0B2, to E- box element. Efficient DNA-binding requires dimerization with another bHLH protein. Interacts with RREB1. Interacts with EP300; the interaction is inhibited by NR0B2. Interacts with TCF3; the interaction is inhibited by ID2.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm (By similarity). Nucleus. Note=In pancreatic islet cells, shuttles to the nucleus in response to glucose stimulation (By similarity). Colocalizes with NR0B2 in the nucleus.
PTM: Phosphorylated. In islet cells, phosphorylated on Ser-274 upon glucose stimulation; which may be required for nuclear localization. In activated neurons, phosphorylated on Ser-335; which promotes dendritic growth. Phosphorylated by MAPK1; phosphorylation regulates heterodimerization and DNA-binding activities. Phosphorylation on Ser-266 and Ser-274 increases transactivation on the insulin promoter in glucose-stimulated insulinoma cells (By similarity).
DISEASE: Defects in NEUROD1 are the cause of maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 6 (MODY6) [MIM:606394]. MODY is a form of diabetes that is characterized by an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance, onset in childhood or early adulthood (usually before 25 years of age), a primary defect in insulin secretion and frequent insulin-independence at the beginning of the disease.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 bHLH (basic helix-loop-helix) domain.

    In conclusion, the Ala45Thr polymorphism contributes to the risk of development of, and to the early deterioration of beta-cell function, in Type 1a diabetes among the Japanese population.
  2. Cardiovascular Diseases

    No association attained genome-wide significance, but several intriguing findings emerged. Notably, we replicated associations of chromosome 9p21 with major CVD. Additional studies are needed to validate these results. Finding genetic variants associated with CVD may point to novel disease pathways and identify potential targeted preventive therapies.
  3. diabetes, type 1

    Our results confirm that the NEUROD Ala45Thr polymorphism is associated with childhood-onset Type 1 DM.

-  Orthologous Genes in Other Species
  Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
