DCOH, A BIFUNCTIONAL PROTEIN-BINDING TRANSCRIPTIONAL COACTIVATORDCOH, A BIFUNCTIONAL PROTEIN-BINDING TRANSCRIPTIONAL COACTIVATOR
Structural highlights
1dco is a 8 chain structure with sequence from Rattus norvegicus. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
PHS_RAT Involved in tetrahydrobiopterin biosynthesis. Seems to both prevent the formation of 7-pterins and accelerate the formation of quinonoid-BH2. Coactivator for HNF1A-dependent transcription. Regulates the dimerization of homeodomain protein HNF1A and enhances its transcriptional activity.[1][2]
