    basic FUNCTION
  • coactivator of AR mediated transactivation in prostate, effect inhibited by a RNF14 (ARA54) dominant negative mutation
  • androgen receptor (AR) co-activator that enhances AR-dependent transcriptional activation
  • playing a role in the regulation of cyclin D1 expression in the absence of AR stimulation in cancer cells
  • might participate in enhancing cell cycle progression and cell proliferation via induction of cyclin D1 (CCND1)(Kikuchi 2007)
  • androgen receptor (AR) co-activator that enhances AR-dependent transcriptional activation (Kikuchi 2007)
  • may play an important role in testicular development and spermatogenesis in humans (Lan 2008)
  • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide, transcription, regulation
