| UniProt functional annotation for Q15646 | |||
| UniProt code: Q15646. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | Does not have 2'-5'-OAS activity, but can bind double- stranded RNA. Displays antiviral activity against encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) via an alternative antiviral pathway independent of RNase L. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18931074, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20074559, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9826176}. | |
| Subunit: | Specifically interacts with the ligand binding domain of the thyroid receptor (TR). TRIP14 does not require the presence of thyroid hormone for its interaction. Binds MBD1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14728690}. | |
| Subcellular location: | [Isoform p56]: Nucleus, nucleolus. Cytoplasm. | |
| Subcellular location: | [Isoform p30]: Cytoplasm. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Expressed in most tissues, with the highest levels in primary blood Leukocytes and other hematopoietic system tissues, colon, stomach and to some extent in testis. | |
| Induction: | By type I interferon (IFN) and viruses. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19203244, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20074559}. | |
| Domain: | The ubiquitin-like domains are essential for its antiviral activity. | |
| Miscellaneous: | [Isoform 3]: Has antiviral activity against RNA viruses. {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the 2-5A synthase family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Sequence caution: | Sequence=AAC41733.1; Type=Frameshift; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; | |
