CATEGORY

protooncogene

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	intracellular
	intracellular,cytoplasm,cytosolic

basic FUNCTION	oncogenic factor in cancer cells and negative mediator of apoptosis in certain cell types
	Galpha(i)-TNFAIP8-mediated rescue of pre-oncogenic cells can may be enhances progression to oncogenic transformation, providing a selective target to inhibit cellular transformation
	contributes to the regulation of renal functions
	crucial in regulating glucocorticoid-mediated apoptosis of thymocytes
	one of critical components of a signal transduction pathway that links mesangial cell proliferation to diabetic renal injury

CELLULAR PROCESS	cell life, antiapoptosis

PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS

PATHWAY

metabolism

signaling

a component

novel NR2FI complex with TNFAIP8 that functions as a repressor of transcription and may play a role in the TNFalpha signaling pathways

INTERACTION

DNA

RNA

small molecule

protein

preferentially interacted with activated Galpha(i) proteins, consistent with direct Galpha(i)-TNFAIP8 couplin

cell & other

REGULATION

induced by

the activation of the transcription factor NF-kappaB

repressed by

NR2F1 (repressed by NR2FI in a manner that required several of the component proteins of the NR2FI complex)
