CATEGORY

transcription factor , tumor suppressor

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	intracellular
	intracellular,cytoplasm,cytosolic
	intracellular,nucleus,nucleolus
text	nuclear CAMTA1 expression is identified in the majority of Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) cases

basic FUNCTION	play important roles in oncogenesis
	may participate in induction of cell differentiation and cell cycle regulation
	transcription factor that interfaces with the calcium-calmodulin system of the cell to alter gene expression patterns
	potential role in human episodic memory
	induced neurite-like processes and markers of neuronal differentiation in neuroblastoma cells
	inhibits growth and activates differentiation programs in neuroblastoma cells
	has a role in brain and cerebellar function
	is a putative tumor suppressive transcription factor
	is a regulator of long-term memory formation

Candidate gene
Marker	presence of WWTR1-CAMTA1 fusion may serve as a useful molecular diagnostic tool in challenging diagnoses
	nuclear CAMTA1 expression is sensitive and highly specific for epithelioid haemangioendothelioma (EHE) and can be applied to diagnostic immunohistochemistry in epithelioid tumours

ANIMAL & CELL MODELS

global or nervous system deletion of Camta1 in mice causes severe ataxia with Purkinje cell degeneration and cerebellar atrophy, partially resembling the consequences of haploinsufficiency of the human Camta1 locus
