REST
This gene encodes a transcriptional repressor that represses neuronal genes in non-neuronal tissues. It is a member of the Kruppel-type zinc finger transcription factor family. It represses transcription by binding a DNA sequence element called the neuron-restrictive silencer element. The protein is also found in undifferentiated neuronal progenitor cells and it is thought that this repressor may act as a master negative regular of neurogenesis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described

Interaction
Isoform 1 and isoform 3 form heterodimers (By similarity). Isoform 3: Forms homodimers and homooligomers; binds to the neuron-restrictive silencer element (NRSE) as monomer (By similarity). Interacts with SIN3A, SIN3B and RCOR1 (PubMed:10449787, PubMed:10734093, PubMed:16288918). Interacts with CDYL (PubMed:19061646). Interacts with EHMT1 and EHMT2 only in the presence of CDYL (PubMed:19061646). Part of a complex containing at least CDYL, REST, WIZ, SETB1, EHMT1 and EHMT2 (PubMed:19061646). Interacts (via zinc-finger DNA-binding domain) with ZFP90 (via N- and C-termini); the interaction inhibits REST repressor activity (PubMed:21284946). Interacts (via C2H2-type zinc finger 5) with PRICKLE1 (PubMed:14645515, PubMed:16442230). Interacts with FBXW11 and BTRC (PubMed:18354482). Interacts with USP7 (PubMed:21258371).
