Background
This gene was identified by its ability to suppress the tumorigenicity of Hela cells in nude mice. The protein encoded by this gene contains a C-terminal region that shares similarity with the Rab 3 family of small GTP binding proteins. This protein preferentially binds to the SH3 domain of c-Abl kinase, and acts as a regulator of MAPK1/ERK2 kinase, which may contribute to its ability to reduce the tumorigenic phenotype in cells. Three alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene encoding distinct isoforms are identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
Function
function:May be involved in cytoskeletal organization and tumorgenicity. Isoform 1 seems to be involved in a signaling transduction pathway leading to activation of MAPK1/ERK2. Isoform 3 may block ERK2 activation stimulated by ABL1. Isoform 3 may alter cell morphology and cell growth.,similarity:Contains 1 dDENN domain.,similarity:Contains 1 DENN domain.,similarity:Contains 1 uDENN domain.,subunit:Isoform 1 interacts with the SH3 domain of ABL1.,tissue specificity:Widely expressed with the exception of peripheral blood lymphocytes. Isoform 1 is expressed in several epithelial and fibroblast (including tumorigenic) but absent in lymphoid cell lines (at protein level). Isoform 3 is expressed in primary cell or weakly tumorigenic but not in tumorigenic cell lines (at protein level).,
