Function |
Major mediator of the tumor suppressor activity of IFN in breast cancer cells. Promotes ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of MDM2, which leads to p53/TP53 stabilization. Promotes ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of HDAC1, which in turn enhances maspin expression, and impairs invasive activity of cancer cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16479015, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18247378}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Isoform 5: Nucleus. Nucleus speckle.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in spleen, lymph node and peripheral blood leukocytes, and at lower levels in thymus, bone marrow and fetal liver. Down-regulated in breast tumors. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15122330}.
