high mobility group protein HMG-I/HMG-Y; HMG-I(Y); high mobility group AT-hook protein 1; high mobility group protein A1; high mobility group protein R (HMGA1 HMGIY)
Function:
- HMG-I/Y bind preferentially to the minor groove of A+T rich regions in double stranded DNA
- it is suggested that these proteins could function in nucleosome phasing & in the 3'-end processing of mRNA transcripts
- role in transcription regulation of genes containing, or in close proximity to A+T-rich regions
- constitutively phosphorylated on two or three sites
- phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR
- hyperphosphorylated at early stages of apoptosis, followed by dephosphorylation & methylation, which coincides with chromatin condensation
- isoform HMG-Y can be phosphorylated by HIPK2
- HMG-Y is not methylated
- interacts with HIPK2 (putative)
Structure:
- belongs to the HMGA family
- contains 3 A.T hook DNA-binding domains
Compartment: nucleus
Alternative splicing: named isoforms=3; HMGA1a, HMGA1b, HMGA1c
Pathology:
- interacts with HIV-1 pre-integration complex
- chromosomal translocation t(6;14)(p21;q23-24) involving HMGA1 with RAD51L1 is found in pulmonary chondroid hamartoma
