| UniProt functional annotation for Q9BTC0 | |||
| UniProt code: Q9BTC0. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | Putative transcription factor, weakly pro-apoptotic when overexpressed (By similarity). Tumor suppressor. Required for early embryonic stem cell development. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16127461}. | |
| Function: | [Isoform 2]: Displaces isoform 4 at the onset of differentiation, required for repression of stemness genes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16127461}. | |
| Subunit: | Interacts specifically (via PHD-type zinc finger) with histone H3 that is trimethylated at 'Lys-4' (H3K4me3), histone phosphorylation at 'Thr-3' or 'Thr-6' disrupts this binding and promotes translocation of DIDO1 from chromatin to the mitotic spindle during mitosis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23831028}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Nucleus {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00651}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23831028}. Note=Translocates to the nucleus after pro-apoptotic stimuli (By similarity). Translocates to the mitotic spindle upon loss of interaction with H3K4me3 during early mitosis. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Ubiquitous. | |
| Domain: | The PHD-type zinc finger forms an aromatic cage around H3K4me3. | |
| Miscellaneous: | Defects in DIDO1 may be a cause of myeloid neoplasms. | |
| Sequence caution: | Sequence=BAA20791.2; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; | |
