Background
Synonyms:HOD, HOP, LAGY, NECC1, OB1 Background:Atypical homeodomain protein which does not bind DNA and is required to modulate cardiac growth and development. Acts via its interaction with SRF, thereby modulating the expression of SRF-dependent cardiac-specific genes and cardiac development. Prevents SRF-dependent transcription either by inhibiting SRF binding to DNA or by recruiting histone deacetylase(HDAC) proteins that prevent transcription by SRF. Overexpression causes cardiac hypertrophy(By similarity). May act as a tumor suppressor.
