    basic FUNCTION
  • may be playing a role in regulating gene activity in the proliferative and/or differentiative pathways induced by NGF
  • transcriptional co-repressor affecting the expression of specific genes in a HDAC activity-dependent manner during cell fate decisions, e.g. scattering
  • having a general effect on the translation system
  • negative regulator of transcriptional activity repressing expression of SPP1 and beta-catenin/TCF7L2 target genes, which are involved in myogenesis, muscle maintenance, and regeneration in a histone deacetylase dependent manner
  • modulates the pathogenesis of cystic fibrosis lung disease through the regulation of neutrophil effector function
  • modulates disease severity in cystic fibrosis through the regulation of neutrophil effector function
  • mediates transcriptional co-repression through interaction with histone deacetylase (HDAC) enzymes and has been implicated in cell differentiation and stress response pathways
  • functions as a negative regulator of NFKB1, known to inhibit MYOD1 expression post-transcriptionally
  • plays a role in muscle differentiation by controlling the MyoD pathway through multiple mechanisms, and as such, it positively regulates regenerative myogenesis
  • may play an important role in controlling inflammatory response in airway epithelium
  • strongly stimulated transcription on a linearized template, whereas it alleviated transcription on a supercoiled template
  • stimulated both basal and activated transcription
  • plays essential roles in the transition step from transcription initiation to elongation by binding to melted DNA in collaboration with GTF2E2
  • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide, transcription, regulation

    protein
  • interacting with SIN3B, HDAC1, NCOR1, SAP30
  • act through a recruitment of different HDACs
  • function as a coactivator of MYOD1 by promoting the transcriptional activity of myocyte enhancer factor 2C (MEF2C)
  • bound to CDK7
  • bound to the C-terminal region of GTF2E2 adjacent to the basic region
