General annotation (Comments)

Function

Contributes to the regulation of the Wnt signaling pathway. Down-regulates CTNNB1-mediated transcriptional activation of target genes, such as CCND1, and may thereby act as tumor suppressor By similarity. May be involved in dendritic cell and neuron differentiation. Ref.5

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm By similarity. Cytoplasmperinuclear region By similarity. Cell projectiongrowth cone. Note: In neurons, seems to concentrate at axonal growth cone.

Tissue specificity

Broadly expressed, with highest levels in heart, liver, skeletal muscle and aorta. Ref.1

Induction

Up-regulated by aldosterone in kidney and colon, but not in heart. Down-regulated in cortex by antidepressant treatments. Ref.1 Ref.2

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the NDRG family.
