REST corepressor 1 also known as CoREST is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RCOR1 gene.[1][2]

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).[2]

Interactions
