Disease_relevanceHuman RE1-silencing transcription factor (REST), also known as Neuron-restrictive silencer factor (NRSF) is a transcriptional repressor, also involved in repression of neuronal genes during embryonic development that is down-regulated after terminal neuronal differentiation; recent transcriptional profiling data indicate that REST is induced in the aging brain and declines in Alzhemier''s disease (AD); REST is neuroprotective, repressing genes involved in cell death and strongly inhibiting tau phosphorylation, associated with AD; REST-deficient mice showed a progressive age-related neurodegenerative phenotype; in C. elegans, mutations in the multi-zinc finger transcripton factors, spr-3 and spr-4, structurally resembling mammalian REST, and a mutation in spr-1, orthologous to CoREST, showed significantly reduced survival relative to wild-type controls, with spr-4(by105) most affected; further, transgenic expression of human REST could functionally replace wild-type spr-4, as indicated by reducing paraquat-induced elevated ROS levels in spr-4(by105) and by repressing the presenilin gene hop-1, which is repressed by SPR-4; SPR-4 also modulated the neurotoxicity of A-beta in an C. elegans line that expresses A-beta42 in glutamatergic neurons and undergoes age-dependent neuronal loss, when this line was crossed with the spr-4(by105) mutant, the resulting line expressed A-beta42 and showed significantly accelerated neurodegeneration; thus, SPR-4 protects against both oxidative stress and A-beta toxicity, consistent with a general role in stress resistance.Homo sapiensPaper_evidenceWBPaper00045043

Remarkpublished in Wen et al., PNAS 97: 14527-14529, 2000
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
