| UniProt functional annotation for P42166 | |||
| UniProt code: P42166. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | May be involved in the structural organization of the nucleus and in the post-mitotic nuclear assembly. Plays an important role, together with LMNA, in the nuclear anchorage of RB1. | |
| Function: | TP and TP5 may play a role in T-cell development and function. TP5 is an immunomodulating pentapeptide. | |
| Subunit: | Interacts with LMNA, BANF1 and RB1 and with chromosomes. Associates directly or indirectly with lamins at specific cell-cycle stages. Interacts with CMTM6 (PubMed:28813417). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10984438, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12475961, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28813417, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9707448}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Nucleus. Chromosome. Note=Expressed diffusely throughout the nucleus. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Expressed in many tissues. Most abundant in adult thymus and fetal liver. | |
| Domain: | The N-terminal part contains two structurally independent, non- interacting domains: LEM-like (also called LAP2-N or LEM-D) and LEM (also called LAP2-C or LEM-B). LEM-like binds DNA while LEM interacts with BANF1. | |
| Domain: | The C-terminal domain forms a four-stranded coiled coil. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Ptm: | Phosphorylated in a mitose-specific manner. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9707448}. | |
| Pharmaceutical: | TP5 is available under the names Timunox (Cilag), Sintomodulina (Italofarmaco) and Mepentil (Recordati). Used in primary and secondary immune deficiencies, autoimmunity, infections and cancer. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the LEM family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
