Background
This gene is a tumor suppressor and encodes a protein that binds to the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4A1 and inhibits its function by preventing RNA binding. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010],
Function
caution:The sequence shown here is derived from an Ensembl automatic analysis pipeline and should be considered as preliminary data.,disease:Loss of expression correlated with tumor progression of lung and colon carcinoma.,domain:Binds EIF4A1 via the MA3 domains.,function:Tumor suppressor. Inhibits tumor promoter-induced neoplastic transformation. Down-regulates the expression of MAP4K1, thus inhibiting events important in driving invasion, namely, MAPK85 activation and consequent JUN-dependent transcription. May play a role in apoptosis. Inhibits the helicase activity of EIF4A and cap-dependent translation. Binds RNA.,induction:IL2 stimulation inhibits expression, while IL12 increases expression.,sequence caution:Contaminating sequence. Potential poly-A sequence.,similarity:Belongs to the PDCD4 family.,similarity:Contains 2 MI domains.,subcellular location:Shuttles between the nucleus a
