  ID: HES3_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Transcription factor HES-3; AltName: Full=Class B basic helix-loop-helix protein 43; Short=bHLHb43; AltName: Full=Hairy and enhancer of split 3;
FUNCTION: Transcriptional repressor of genes that require a bHLH protein for their transcription (By similarity).
SUBUNIT: Transcription repression requires formation of a complex with a corepressor protein of the Groucho/TLE family (By similarity).
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus (By similarity).
DOMAIN: Has a particular type of basic domain (presence of a helix-interrupting proline) that binds to the N-box (CACNAG), rather than the canonical E-box (CANNTG).
DOMAIN: The C-terminal WRPW motif is a transcriptional repression domain necessary for the interaction with Groucho/TLE family members, transcriptional corepressors recruited to specific target DNA by Hairy-related proteins (By similarity).
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 bHLH (basic helix-loop-helix) domain.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 Orange domain.
SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=CAI19439.1; Type=Erroneous gene model prediction;

-  Primer design for this transcript
 

Primer3Plus can design qPCR Primers that straddle exon-exon-junctions, which amplify only cDNA, not genomic DNA.
Click here to load the transcript sequence and exon structure into Primer3Plus

Exonprimer can design one pair of Sanger sequencing primers around every exon, located in non-genic sequence.

The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.

-  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.
