General annotation (Comments)

Function

Interacts with a specific negative regulatory element (NRE) 5'-AATTCCTCTGA-3' to mediate transcriptional repression of certain NK-kappa-B responsive genes. Involved in the constitutive silencing of the interferon beta promoter, independently of the virus-induced signals, and in the inhibition of the basal and cytokine-induced iNOS promoter activity. Also involved in the regulation of IL-8 transcription. Ref.5

Subunit structure

Interacts with NF-kappa-B.

Subcellular location

Nucleusnucleolus Ref.6.

Tissue specificity

Widely and constitutively expressed. Expressed at lower level in colon, peripheral blood lymphocytes, lung and kidney.

Sequence similarities

Contains 1 G-patch domain.

Contains 1 R3H domain.

Sequence caution

The sequence CAB56459.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Frameshift at positions 378, 405, 410, 441, 502, 516, 588, 599, 601 and 681.
