RCOR1

REST corepressor 1 also known as CoREST is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RCOR1 gene.

Function
This gene encodes a protein that is well-conserved, downregulated at birth, and with a specific role in determining neural cell differentiation. The encoded protein binds to the C-terminal domain of REST (repressor element-1 silencing transcription factor).

Interactions
RCOR1 has been shown to interact with
 * HDAC1,
 * HDAC2,
 * HMG20B,
 * REST and
 * PHF21A.
