Product Details
COBRA1 (NELF-B)
COBRA1 (cofactor of BRCA1) also known as NELF-B, is an essential component of the negative elongation factor (NELF) complex. COBRA1 has been shown to directly bind estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) and repress ERα-mediated transcription (Aiyar SE et al., 2004). COBRA1 has also been demonstrated to interact with c-Jun and c-Fos suggesting a role in modulation of the AP-1 pathway and therefore may be important in cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and oncogenesis (Zhong H et al., 2004)

UniProt Summary: Essential component of the NELF complex, a complex that negatively regulates the elongation of transcription by RNA polymerase II (PubMed:12612062). The NELF complex, which acts via an association with the DSIF complex and causes transcriptional pausing, is counteracted by the P-TEFb kinase complex (PubMed:10199401). May be able to induce chromatin unfolding (PubMed:11739404). Essential for early embryogenesis; plays an important role in maintaining the undifferentiated state of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) by preventing unscheduled expression of developmental genes (By similarity). Plays a key role in establishing the responsiveness of stem cells to developmental cues; facilitates plasticity and cell fate commitment in ESCs by establishing the appropriate expression level of signaling molecules (By similarity). Supports the transcription of genes involved in energy metabolism in cardiomyocytes; facilitates the association of transcription initiation factors with the promoters of the metabolism-related genes (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8C4Y3, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10199401, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11739404, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12612062}.; (Microbial infection) The NELF complex is involved in HIV-1 latency possibly involving recruitment of PCF11 to paused RNA polymerase II (PubMed:23884411). In vitro, binds weakly to the HIV-1 TAR RNA which is located in the long terminal repeat (LTR) of HIV-1 (PubMed:23884411). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23884411}.
