Query author contributions in Reactome
Reactome depends on collaboration between our curation team and outside experts to assemble and peer-review its pathway modules. The integration of ORCID within Reactome enables us to meet a key challenge with authoring, curating and reviewing biological information by incentivizing and crediting the external experts that contribute their expertise and time to the Reactome curation process. More information is available at ORCID and Reactome.
If you have an ORCID ID that is not listed on this page, please forward this information to us and we will update your Reactome pathway records.

| comment | FUNCTION Transcription factor (By similarity). Associated with the BAF SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex (PubMed:23644491). Binds to the 5'-TGACCA-3' sequence motif in regulatory regions of target genes (By similarity). Involved in brain development (By similarity). May play a role in hematopoiesis (PubMed:10757802). Essential factor in lymphopoiesis, required for B-cell formation in fetal liver (PubMed:12717432). May function as a modulator of the transcriptional repression activity of NR2F2 (PubMed:10744719).SUBUNIT Homotetrameric; self-associates via C2HC-type zinc finger domain (By similarity). Interacts with MTA2, a component of the nucleosome remodeling and deacetylase (NuRD) repressor complex (By similarity). Interacts with NR2F1, PIAS3, NR2F2 and NR2F6 (PubMed:10744719, PubMed:18681895). Interacts with TBR1 (By similarity).SUBCELLULAR LOCATION Associates with the nuclear body. Colocalizes with SUMO1 and SENP2 in nuclear speckles.ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS Isoforms are expressed in a tissue-specific fashion. Isoforms 1, isoform 2, and isoform 3 are expressed at similar levels in testis, kidney and spleen. Isoform 1 is expressed in the stomach, and isoform 2 is expressed exclusively in the lung. Overexpression following proviral integration in hematopoietic cells results in the generation of myeloid leukemia.DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE Highly expressed in the developing embryo. Expressed in developing brain from 10.5 dpc, with highest expression in the forebrain between 12.5 dpc and 14.5 dpc. Central nervous system expression persists throughout the postnatal period in the cortex, hippocampus, olfactory buld, and, to a lesser extent, in the cerebellum.DOMAIN The N-terminus is involved in protein dimerization and in transactivation of transcription.DOMAIN Zinc finger domains are necessary for sequence-specific binding to DNA.PTM Sumoylated with SUMO1.DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE Germline biallelic loss of Bcl11a leads to perinatal lethality. Bcl11a +/- mice have a significantly decreased brain volume, affecting both gray and white matter. The limbic system (hippocampus and amygdala) is among the brain regions that are more severely affected. Bcl11a +/- mice display normal novelty-seeking behavior but show long-term social memory defects, impaired sociability, and increased physical activity. Bcl11a +/- mice show dynamic postnatal transcriptional dysregulation in the brain.SEQUENCE CAUTION Truncated N-terminus. |
