UniProt functional annotation for Q8NCF5

UniProt code: Q8NCF5.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
 
Function: In T-helper 2 (Th2) cells, regulates the magnitude of NFAT- driven transcription of a specific subset of cytokine genes, including IL3, IL4, IL5 and IL13, but not IL2. Recruits PRMT1 to the IL4 promoter; this leads to enhancement of histone H4 'Arg-3'-methylation and facilitates subsequent histone acetylation at the IL4 locus, thus promotes robust cytokine expression (By similarity). Down-regulates formation of poly-SUMO chains by UBE2I/UBC9 (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
 
Subunit: Interacts with NFATC2, TRAF1, TRAF2 and PRMT1. Interacts with UBE2I/UBC9 (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Subcellular location: Nucleus {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Note=TRAF1 is associated with a fraction of NFATC2IP in the cytoplasm and prevents its translocation to the nucleus. {ECO:0000250}.
Ptm: Methylation at the N-terminus by PRMT1 modulates interaction with the NFAT complex and results in augmented cytokine production. {ECO:0000250}.
Sequence caution: Sequence=AAM49721.1; Type=Frameshift; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
