摘要
The NFE2L1 transcription factor (aka Nrf1) is a basic leucine zipper protein that performs a critical role in the cellular stress response pathway. Here, we characterized a novel variant of NFE2L1 referred to as NFE2L1-616. The transcript encoding NFE2L1-616 is derived from an intronic promoter, and it has a distinct first exon than other reported full-length NFE2L1 isoforms. The NFE2L1-616 protein constitutively localizes in the nucleus as it lacks the N-terminal amino acid residues that targets other full-length NFE2L1 isoforms to the endoplasmic reticulum. The expression level of NFE2L1-616 is lower than other NFE2L1 isoforms. It is widely expressed across different cell lines and tissues that were examined. NFE2L1-616 showed strong transcriptional activity driving luciferase reporter expression from a promoter containing antioxidant response element. Together, the results suggest that NFE2L1-616 variant can function as a positive regulator in the transcriptional regulation of NFE2L1 responsive genes.
