General annotation (Comments)

Function

Atypical homeodomain protein which does not bind DNA and is required to modulate cardiac growth and development. Acts via its interaction with SRF, thereby modulating the expression of SRF-dependent cardiac-specific genes and cardiac development. Prevents SRF-dependent transcription either by inhibiting SRF binding to DNA or by recruiting histone deacetylase (HDAC) proteins that prevent transcription by SRF. Overexpression causes cardiac hypertrophy By similarity. May act as a tumor suppressor.

Subunit structure

Interacts with serum response factor (SRF). Component of a large complex containing histone deacetylases such as HDAC2 By similarity.

Subcellular location

Nucleus By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Widely expressed. Expressed in the heart, brain, placenta, lung, skeletal and smooth muscles, uterus, urinary bladder, kidney and spleen. Down-regulated in some types of cancer such as lung cancer, choriocarcinoma, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and oral squamous cell carcinoma. Ref.2 Ref.3

Sequence similarities

Contains 1 homeobox DNA-binding domain.

Alternative products

This entry describes 2 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform 1 (identifier: Q9BPY8-1)

Also known as: A;

This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry.
Isoform 2 (identifier: Q9BPY8-2)

Also known as: B;

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     49-73: KWFKQRLAKWRRSEGLPSECRSVTD → GSDLISRSKIWHPESSPQREGYPHDSLLCLAFDYFSLLPPQCKEMV
