BiotechnologyPOU5F1/OCT4, SOX2, MYC/c-Myc and KLF4 are the four Yamanaka factors. When combined, these factors are sufficient to reprogram differentiated cells to an embryonic-like state designated iPS (induced pluripotent stem) cells. iPS cells exhibit the morphology and growth properties of ES cells and express ES cell marker genes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18035408}.
DiseaseBurkitt lymphoma (BL) [MIM:113970]: A form of undifferentiated malignant lymphoma commonly manifested as a large osteolytic lesion in the jaw or as an abdominal mass. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2166998, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8220424}. Note=The gene represented in this entry is involved in disease pathogenesis. Chromosomal aberrations involving MYC are usually found in Burkitt lymphoma. Translocations t(8;14), t(8;22) or t(2;8) which juxtapose MYC to one of the heavy or light chain immunoglobulin gene loci.
DiseaseNote=A chromosomal aberration involving MYC may be a cause of a form of B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Translocation t(8;12)(q24;q22) with BTG1.
DiseaseNote=Overexpression of MYC is implicated in the etiology of a variety of hematopoietic tumors.
FunctionTranscription factor that binds DNA in a non-specific manner, yet also specifically recognizes the core sequence 5'- CAC[GA]TG-3'. Activates the transcription of growth-related genes.

PtmPhosphorylated by PRKDC. Phosphorylation at Ser-329 by PIM2 leads to the stabilization of MYC (By similarity). Phosphorylation at Ser-62 by CDK2 prevents Ras-induced senescence. Phosphorylated at Ser-62 by DYRK2; this primes the protein for subsequent phosphorylation by GSK3B at Thr-58. Phosphorylation at Thr-58 and Ser-62 by GSK3 is required for ubiquitination and degradation by the proteasome. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15103331, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17081983, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17558397, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18669648, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19966300, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20713526, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21406692, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22307329, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8386367}.
PtmUbiquitinated by the SCF(FBXW7) complex when phosphorylated at Thr-58 and Ser-62, leading to its degradation by the proteasome. In the nucleoplasm, ubiquitination is counteracted by USP28, which interacts with isoform 1 of FBXW7 (FBW7alpha), leading to its deubiquitination and preventing degradation. In the nucleolus, however, ubiquitination is not counteracted by USP28, due to the lack of interaction between isoform 4 of FBXW7 (FBW7gamma) and USP28, explaining the selective MYC degradation in the nucleolus. Also polyubiquitinated by the DCX(TRUSS) complex. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15103331, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17081983, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17558397, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18669648, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19966300, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20713526, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21406692, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22307329, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8386367}.
SimilarityContains 1 bHLH (basic helix-loop-helix) domain. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00981}.
Subcellular LocationNucleus, nucleoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17558397}. Nucleus, nucleolus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17558397}.
SubunitEfficient DNA binding requires dimerization with another bHLH protein. Binds DNA as a heterodimer with MAX. Interacts with TAF1C and SPAG9. Interacts with PARP10. Interacts with KDM5A and KDM5B. Interacts (when phosphorylated at Thr-58 and Ser-62) with FBXW7. Interacts with PIM2. Interacts with NO66. The heterodimer MYC:MAX interacts with ABI1; the interaction may enhance MYC:MAX transcriptional activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15103331, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15674325, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15723054, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17308053, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17311883, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17558397, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17873522, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9680483}.
