CXXC-type zinc finger protein 5 (UniProt: Q7LFL8, also known as CF5, Putative MAPK-activating protein PM08, Putative NF-kappa-B-activating protein 102, Retinoid-inducible nuclear factor, RINF) is encoded by the CXXCS (also known as HSPC195, TCCCIA00297) gene (Gene ID: 51523) in human. In human cells, two isoforms of RINF have been reported that are produced by alternative splicing. The isoform two lacks the first 95 amino acids. RINF serves as a transcription factor that binds to the oxygen responsive element of COX4I2 and represses its transcription under hypoxia conditions (4% oxygen), as well as normoxia conditions (20% oxygen). Its nuclear localization sequence is localized in amino acids 257-262. It is shown to co-localize with DVL1 in large bodies localized outside the nuclear membrane. RINF is shown to be important in normal myelopoiesis. RINF acts as a mediator of BMP4-mediated modulation of canonical Wnt signaling activity in neural stem cells. It is also shown to be essential for DNA damage-induced ATM phosphorylation, p53 activation, and cell cycle arrest. RINF silencing is reported to increase sensitivity of K562 cells to daunorubicin- and lenalidomide. (Ref.: Aston A et al. (2013). Oncotarget. 4(9), 1438-1448).
