General annotation (Comments)

Function

Growth suppressor that facilitates the entry of the cell into cell cycle arrest. Functionally similar to the retinoblastoma protein it binds to and represses the activity of cell-cycle-promoting proteins such as SV40 large T antigen, adenovirus E1A, and the transcription factor E2F. Necdin also interacts with p53 and works in an additive manner to inhibit cell growth. Functions also as transcription factor and binds directly to specific guanosine-rich DNA sequences By similarity.

Subunit structure

Binds to the transactivation domains of E2F1 and p53. Binds also SV40 large T antigen and adenovirus E1A. Interacts with nucleobindin 1 and 2 By similarity.

Subcellular location

Perikaryon. Nucleus. Note: Neural perikarya, translocates to the nucleus of postmitotic neurons and interacts with the nuclear matrix.

Tissue specificity

Almost ubiquitous. Detected in fetal brain, lung, liver and kidney; in adult heart, brain, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney, pancreas, spleen, thymus, prostate, testis, ovary, small intestine and colon. Not detected in peripheral blood leukocytes. In brain, restricted to post-mitotic neurons.

Miscellaneous

Located in the Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) chromosome region. Prader-Willi syndrome is a contiguous gene syndrome resulting from deletion of the paternal copies of the imprinted SNRPN gene, the necdin gene, and possibly other genes within the chromosome region 15q11-q13.

Sequence similarities

Contains 1 MAGE domain.
