REST corepressor 1 also known as CoREST is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RCOR1 gene.^[5][6]

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).^[6]

Interactions

RCOR1 has been shown to interact with

• HDAC1,^[7][8]
• HDAC2,^[7][8]
• HMG20B,^[7]
• REST^[5] and
• PHF21A.^[7][9]
