Background:
CXXC5 (CXXC finger 5), also known as RINF or HSPC195, is a 322 amino acid, protein that localizes to both the nucleus and the cytoplasm and contains one CXXC-type zinc finger. Interacting with Dvl-1, CXXC5 acts as a mediator of Wnt signaling in neural stem cells and is thought to participate in the activation of MAP kinase pathways. The gene encoding CXXC5 maps to human chromosome 5 and is expressed as multiple alternatively spliced isoforms.
Synonyms:
CXXC finger protein 5
UniProt Protein Function:
CXXC5: May indirectly participate in activation of the NF- kappa-B and MAPK pathways. Acts as a mediator of BMP4-mediated modulation of canonical Wnt signaling activity in neural stem cells. Required for DNA damage-induced ATM phosphorylation, p53 activation and cell cycle arrest. Involved in myelopoiesis. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 5q31.2Cellular Component: cytoplasm; nucleoplasmMolecular Function: protein binding; sequence-specific DNA binding; signal transducer activity; transcription factor bindingBiological Process: negative regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; positive regulation of I-kappaB kinase/NF-kappaB cascade

NCBI Summary:
The protein encoded by this gene is a retinoid-inducible nuclear protein containing a CXXC-type zinc finger motif. The encoded protein is involved in myelopoiesis, is required for DNA damage-induced p53 activation, regulates the differentiation of C2C12 myoblasts into myocytes, and negatively regulates cutaneous wound healing. Several transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]
