  • shift from cytoplasm to nucleus by the treatment with an inhibitor of the nuclear export, leptomycin B, and mutagenesis of the putative nuclear export signals
  • colocalization of ZNF395 and BAG6 in the nucleus might be an important factor for survival of osteosarcoma cells
  • basic FUNCTION
  • might play a role in transcription of PV genes and in E2-mediated repression
  • transcription factors shuttling between nucleus and cytoplasm and binding to the specific GCCGGCG, which is an essential cis-element for HD gene expression in neuronal cells
  • new cellular factor mediating the effects of PI3K/Akt signaling and 14-3-3 on cell growth
  • nuclear-cytoplasmic shuttling factor with the ability to inhibit cell growth
  • acts as a repressor of HPV (human papillomavirus) transcription (repression requires the DNA-binding activity of ZNF395, which we mapped to two C-terminal four-amino acids motifs conserved to the so-called e-tail of certain T-cell factors)
  • ZNF395-mediated repression of transcription involves specific DNA-binding and the recruitment of the SIN3A-HDAC1 complex
  • could induce apoptotic cell death via a caspase-9-independent pathway
  • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide, transcription, regulation
