UniProt code: Q96JZ2.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
 
Function: May be a modulator of the apoptotic response through its ability to affect mitochondrial stability (By similarity). Adapter protein involved in tyrosine kinase and CD28 signaling. Seems to affect CD28-mediated activation of the RE/AP element of the interleukin-2 promoter. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11700021, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12960172, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15284240}.
 
Subunit: Interacts with FES and TNK2. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11700021}.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm. Nucleus.
Tissue specificity: Predominantly expressed in spleen and hematopoietic cells such as peripheral blood leukocytes and weakly expressed in prostate, thymus, heart, small intestine and placenta. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11700021, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12960172}.
