UniProt functional annotation for O15164

UniProt code: O15164.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
 
Function: Transcriptional coactivator that interacts with numerous nuclear receptors and coactivators and modulates the transcription of target genes. Interacts with chromatin depending on histone H3 modifications, having the highest affinity for histone H3 that is both unmodified at 'Lys-4' (H3K4me0) and acetylated at 'Lys-23' (H3K23ac). Has E3 protein-ubiquitin ligase activity. Promotes ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of p53/TP53. Plays a role in the regulation of cell proliferation and apoptosis, at least in part via its effects on p53/TP53 levels. Up-regulates ligand-dependent transcription activation by AR, GCR/NR3C1, thyroid hormone receptor (TR) and ESR1. Modulates transcription activation by retinoic acid (RA) receptors, including RARA. Plays a role in regulating retinoic acid-dependent proliferation of hepatocytes (By similarity). {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16322096, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19556538, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21164480}.
 
Catalytic activity: Reaction=S-ubiquitinyl-[E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme]-L-cysteine + [acceptor protein]-L-lysine = [E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme]-L- cysteine + N(6)-ubiquitinyl-[acceptor protein]-L-lysine.; EC=2.3.2.27;
Pathway: Protein modification; protein ubiquitination.
Subunit: Interacts with CARM1, NCOA2/GRIP1, PML, KAT5/TIP60, BRD7, CBX1, CBX3 and CBX5. Part of a coactivator complex containing TRIM24, NCOA2 and CARM1 (By similarity). Interacts with NR3C2/MCR. Interacts with the ligand-binding domain of estrogen receptors (in vitro). Interaction with DNA-bound estrogen receptors requires the presence of estradiol. Interacts with AR and p53/TP53. Interacts (via bromo domain) with histone H3 (via N-terminus), provided that it is not methylated at 'Lys-4' (H3K4me0). Does not interact with histone H3 that is methylated at 'Lys-4' (H3K4me1, H3K4me2 or H3K4me3). Interacts (via bromo domain) with histone H3 (via N-terminus) that is acetylated at 'Lys-23' (H3K23ac). Has the highest affinity for histone H3 that is both unmodified at 'Lys-4' (H3K4me0) and acetylated at 'Lys-23' (H3K23ac). Has very low affinity for histone H3 that is methylated at 'Lys-9' (H3K9me), or acetylated at both 'Lys-9' (H3K9ac) and 'Lys-14' (H3K14ac), or acetylated at 'Lys-27' (H3K27ac) (in vitro). Interacts with TRIM16. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10935545, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19556538, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19909775, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21164480, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22629402, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9115274}.
Subcellular location: Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21164480}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21164480}. Note=Colocalizes with sites of active transcription. Detected both in nucleus and cytoplasm in some breast cancer samples. Predominantly nuclear.
Induction: Up-regulated in some cases of breast cancer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21164480}.
Ptm: Sumoylated. {ECO:0000250}.
Disease: Note=A chromosomal aberration involving TRIM24/TIF1 is found in papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTCs). Translocation t(7;10)(q32;q11) with RET. The translocation generates the TRIM24/RET (PTC6) oncogene. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10439047}.
