Synonyms | H731 |
Function | Inhibits translation initiation and cap-dependent translation. May excert its function by hindering the interaction between EIF4A1 and EIF4G. Inhibits the helicase activity of EIF4A. Modulates the activation of JUN kinase. Down-regulates the expression of MAP4K1, thus inhibiting events important in driving invasion, namely, MAPK85 activation and consequent JUN-dependent transcription. May play a role in apoptosis. Tumor suppressor. Inhibits tumor promoter-induced neoplastic transformation. Binds RNA (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q61823}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q61823}. Note=Shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm (By similarity). Predominantly nuclear under normal growth conditions, and when phosphorylated at Ser-457 (PubMed:16357133) |
Tissue Location | Up-regulated in proliferative cells. Highly expressed in epithelial cells of the mammary gland. Reduced expression in lung cancer and colon carcinoma. |
