Summary
INSM1 (INSM transcriptional repressor 1, HGNC:6090) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 20p11.23, encoding Insulinoma-associated protein 1 (Q01101). Sequence-specific DNA-binding transcriptional regulator that plays a key role in neurogenesis and neuroendocrine cell differentiation during embryonic and/or fetal development.
Insulinoma-associated 1 (INSM1) gene is intronless and encodes a protein containing both a zinc finger DNA-binding domain and a putative prohormone domain. This gene is a sensitive marker for neuroendocrine differentiation of human lung tumors.

Function. Sequence-specific DNA-binding transcriptional regulator that plays a key role in neurogenesis and neuroendocrine cell differentiation during embryonic and/or fetal development. Binds to the consensus sequence 5’-[TG][TC][TC][TT][GA]GGG[CG]A-3’ in target promoters. Acts as a transcriptional repressor of NEUROD1 and INS expression via its interaction with cyclin CCND1 in a cell cycle-independent manner. Negatively regulates skeletal muscle-specific gene expression in endocrine cells of the pituitary by inhibiting the Notch signaling pathway. Represses target gene transcription by recruiting chromatin-modifying factors, such as HDAC1, HDAC2, HDAC3, KDM1A and RCOR1 histone deacetylases. Binds to its own promoter, suggesting autoregulation as a self-control feedback mechanism. Competes with histone H3 for the same binding site on the histone demethylase complex formed by KDM1A and RCOR1, and thereby inhibits demethylation of histone H3 at ‘Lys-4’. Promotes the generation and expansion of neuronal basal progenitor cells in the developing neocortex. Involved in the differentiation of endocrine cells of the developing anterior pituitary gland, of the pancreas and intestine, and of sympatho-adrenal cells in the peripheral nervous system. Promotes cell cycle signaling arrest and inhibition of cellular proliferation.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts (via the SNAG domain) with HDAC1. Interacts (via the SNAG domain) with HDAC2. Interacts (via the SNAG domain) with KDM1A. Interacts (via the SNAG domain) with RCOR1. Interacts with SORBS1. Interacts (via the N-terminal region) with CCND1 (via cyclin N-terminal domain); the interaction competes with the binding of CCND1 to CDK4 during cell cycle progression and increases its transcriptional repressor activity. Interacts with HDAC3; the interaction increases its transcriptional repressor activity.
Subcellular location. Nucleus.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in pancreatic duct cells. Expressed in several tumor cell lines of neuroendocrine origin including pheochromocytoma, medullary thyroid carcinoma, insulinoma, medulloblastoma, retinoblastoma, pheochromacytoma, medullary thyroid carcinoma and small cell lung carcinoma.
Domain organisation. The C-terminal region is necessary for NEUROD1 promoter DNA-binding and transcriptional repressor activity.
Induction. Up-regulated by transcription factors, such as MASH1, NEUROD1, NEUROG3, NGN3 and TCF3.
Similarity. Belongs to the INSM1 family.
