NCIt definition : MyoD family inhibitor domain-containing protein (246 aa, 26 kDa) is encoded by the
human MDFIC gene. This protein is involved in transcriptional modulation through transcription
factor binding, which includes the retention of of Zic family proteins in the cytoplasm.;
NCIt note : 2 isoforms produced by alternative initiation have been observed for MyoD family inhibitor
domain-containing protein. The UniProt canonical isoform is located in the cytoplasm
and is called p32 (isoform 2) and another form is called p40 (isoform 1). p40 is a
minor isoform that initiates from a GTG codon and contains a nucleolar localization
signal at positions 45-63. (UniProt);
