Function | Calcium-binding protein required for T-cell receptor-, Fas-, and glucocorticoid-induced cell death. May mediate Ca(2+)- regulated signals along the death pathway (By similarity). Calcium-dependent adapter necessary for the association between PDCD6IP and TSG101. Interaction with DAPK1 can accelerate apoptotic cell death by increasing caspase-3 activity. May inhibit KDR/VEGFR2-dependent angiogenesis; the function involves inhibition of VEGF-induced phosphoprylation of the Akt signaling pathway. Seems to play a role in the regulation of the distribution and function of MCOLN1 in the endosomal pathway. Isoform 2 has a lower Ca(2+) affinity than isoform 1. Isoform 1 and, to a lesser extend, isoform 2, can stabilize SHISA5. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16132846, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17889823, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19520058, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19864416, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21893193}. |
Subcellular Location | Nucleus membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Nucleus. Endosome. Note=Interaction with RBM22 induces relocalization from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. Translocated from the cytoplasm to the nucleus after heat shock cell treatment. Accumulates in cytoplasmic vesicle-like organelles after heat shock treatment, which may represent stress granules. |
