Also known as bHLHe37N-mycMYCNOT
Summary
MYCN (MYCN proto-oncogene, bHLH transcription factor, HGNC:7559) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 2p24.3, encoding N-myc proto-oncogene protein (P04198). Positively regulates the transcription of MYCNOS in neuroblastoma cells. In precision oncology, MYCN Amplification confers sensitivity to Arsenic Trioxide in Medulloblastoma (CIViC Level D); 6 further curated variant–drug associations are listed below. It is haploinsufficient (ClinGen: sufficient evidence).
This gene is a member of the MYC family and encodes a protein with a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain. This protein is located in the nucleus and must dimerize with another bHLH protein in order to bind DNA. Amplification of this gene is associated with a variety of tumors, most notably neuroblastomas. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Function. Positively regulates the transcription of MYCNOS in neuroblastoma cells.
Subunit / interactions. Efficient DNA binding requires dimerization with another bHLH protein. Binds DNA as a heterodimer with MAX. Interacts with KDM5A, KDM5B and HUWE1. Interacts with MYCNOS. Interacts with AURKA; interaction is phospho-independent and triggers AURKA activation; AURKA competes with FBXW7 for binding to unphosphorylated MYCN but not for binding to unphosphorylated MYCN. Interacts with FBXW7; FBXW7 competes with AURKA for binding to unphosphorylated MYCN but not for binding to phosphorylated MYCN.
Subcellular location. Nucleus.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in the neuronal cells of the cerebrum, neuroblastomas and thyroid tumors (at protein level).
Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylated by GSK3-beta which may promote its degradation. Phosphorylated by AURKA.
Disease relevance. Amplification of the N-MYC gene is associated with a variety of human tumors, most frequently neuroblastoma, where the level of amplification appears to increase as the tumor progresses. Feingold syndrome 1 (FGLDS1) [MIM:164280] A syndrome characterized by variable combinations of esophageal and duodenal atresias, microcephaly, learning disability, intellectual disability, and limb malformations. Hand and foot abnormalities may include hypoplastic thumbs, clinodactyly of second and fifth fingers, syndactyly (characteristically between second and third and fourth and fifth toes), and shortened or absent middle phalanges. Cardiac and renal malformations, vertebral anomalies, and deafness have also been described. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Megalencephaly-polydactyly syndrome (MPAPA) [MIM:620748] An autosomal dominant syndrome characterized by megalencephaly, ventriculomegaly, postaxial polydactyly, and increased risk of neuroblastoma. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Domain organisation. The 9aaTAD motif is a transactivation domain present in a large number of yeast and animal transcription factors.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 29 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
