| UniProt functional annotation for Q9H3M7 | |||
| UniProt code: Q9H3M7. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | May act as an oxidative stress mediator by inhibiting thioredoxin activity or by limiting its bioavailability. Interacts with COPS5 and restores COPS5-induced suppression of CDKN1B stability, blocking the COPS5-mediated translocation of CDKN1B from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Functions as a transcriptional repressor, possibly by acting as a bridge molecule between transcription factors and corepressor complexes, and over-expression will induce G0/G1 cell cycle arrest. Required for the maturation of natural killer cells. Acts as a suppressor of tumor cell growth. Inhibits the proteasomal degradation of DDIT4, and thereby contributes to the inhibition of the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12821938, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17603038, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18541147, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21460850}. | |
| Subunit: | Homodimer; disulfide-linked. Interacts with TXN/thioredoxin through its redox-active site. Interacts with transcriptional repressors ZBTB16, ZBTB32 and HDAC1. Interacts (via C-terminus) with ITCH (via WW domains). Interacts with DDIT4. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12821938, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17603038, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20068034, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21460850, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23519408}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Induction: | By 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-3 and TGFB1. Down-regulated in response to oxidative stress. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12821938, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17603038, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8086474}. | |
| Ptm: | Ubiquitinated; undergoes polyubiquitination catalyzed by ITCH resulting in proteasomal degradation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20068034}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the arrestin family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
