  • localizes to both nucleus and cytoplasm and shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm, but it exhibits strong nuclear export
  • basic FUNCTION
  • transcriptional activator
  • altered ECD levels and/or function may potentially contribute to oncogenesis
  • plays a role in cell cycle progression via the RB-E2F pathway
  • functioning as a transcriptional regulator
  • tumor-promoting factor that is differentially expressed in pancreatic cancer and potentially regulates glucose metabolism within cancer cells
  • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide, transcription

    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • regulator of TP53 stability and function
  • interacts with EP300, a histone acetyltransferase, and coexpression of ECD with EP300 enhances the ECD-mediated transactivation activity
  • TXNIP interacts with ECD and decreases MDM2-mediated TP53 ubiquitination, leading to TP53 stabilization and an increase in TP53 activity
