CATEGORY

antigen

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	plasma membrane
	intracellular
	intracellular,nucleus

basic FUNCTION	tumor antigen recognized by cytolytic T lymphocytes
	acting as a dominant repressor of RAR signaling
	plays an important role in disease progression in acute leukemia
	role for the PRAME ubiquitin ligase complex in NFY-mediated transcriptional regulation
	plays an important role in cell proliferation and disease progression in osteosarcoma
	PRAME is upregulated by signalling pathways that are activated in response to infection/inflammation, and its product may have dual functions as a histone-binding protein, and in directing ubiquitylation of target proteins for processing in the Golgi

CELLULAR PROCESS

PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS

immunity/defense

text	tumor antigen

PATHWAY

metabolism

signaling

a component

BC-box subunit of a Cullin2-based E3 ubiquitin ligase

INTERACTION

DNA

RNA

small molecule

protein	gonococcal OPA protein
	binds to RAR in the presence of RA, preventing ligand-induced receptor activation and target gene transcription through recruitment of Polycomb proteins
	PRAME is a substrate recognition subunit of a CUL2-based E3 ubiquitin ligase
	link between the oncoprotein PRAME and the conserved EKC complex and support a role for both complexes in the same pathways
	PRAME associates with EELOB and ELOC, components of Cullin E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes
