Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
Pirin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PIR gene .[ 5] [ 6]
This gene encodes a member of the cupin superfamily . The encoded protein is an Fe(II)-containing nuclear protein expressed in all tissues of the body and concentrated within dot-like subnuclear structures. Interactions with nuclear factor I/CCAAT box transcription factor as well as B cell lymphoma 3-encoded oncoprotein suggest the encoded protein may act as a transcriptional cofactor and be involved in the regulation of DNA transcription and replication. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.[ 6]
PIR (gene) has been shown to interact with BCL3 .[ 7]
The pir gene is conserved in both bacteria and eukaryotes. In Pseudomonas stutzeri [ 8] Streptomyces ambofaciens spiramycin , the pirA gene regulates the AcdB enzyme that catalyzes one of the first steps of beta-oxidation.[ 9] pirA gene causes a metabolic imbalance that reduces the amount of antibiotic produced.[ 9]
