L-myc-1 proto-oncogene protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MYCL1 gene.[1][2]

MYCL1 is a bHLH (basic helix-loop-helix) transcription factor implicated in lung cancer.[3]

Human genes

Gene ID: 4609 is MYC proto-oncogene, bHLH transcription factor: "This gene is a proto-oncogene and encodes a nuclear phosphoprotein that plays a role in cell cycle progression, apoptosis and cellular transformation. The encoded protein forms a heterodimer with the related transcription factor MAX. This complex binds to the E box DNA consensus sequence and regulates the transcription of specific target genes."[4]

Interactions

MYCL1 has been shown to interact with MAX.[5][6]
