Ligand-Dependent Nuclear Receptor-Interacting Factor 1

**Semantic type:** Amino Acid, Peptide, or Protein

**Definition:** Ligand-dependent nuclear receptor-interacting factor 1 (769 aa, ~85 kDa) is encoded by the human LRIF1 gene. This protein is involved in the repression of ligand-dependent activation of retinoic acid receptor alpha, the compaction of heterochromatin and X chromosome inactivation in females.

**Synonyms:** - HBiX1 - HP1-Binding Protein Enriched in Inactive X Chromosome Protein 1 - LRIF1 - Ligand Dependent Nuclear Receptor Interacting Factor 1 - Receptor Interacting Factor 1 - Receptor-Interacting Factor 1
