Function |
Transcriptional factor that binds to the consensus sequence 5'-[GT][AG][AGT]GGGG-3' and acts as a repressor of autophagy. Specifically represses expression of genes involved in autophagy and lysosome biogenesis/function such as MAP1LC3B, ULK1 or WIPI2. Associates with chromatin at the ITGB4 and VEGF promoters. Also acts as a transcription activator and promotes cancer cell progression and/or migation in various tumors and myelomas. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18940803, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21057542, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22531714, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23434374}.

Subcellular Location |
Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Note=Mainly localizes in the nucleus. Under starvation conditions translocates to the cytoplasm, allowing expression of target genes involved in autophagy and lysosome biogenesis/function.
