  • involved in the control of cell replication
  • potent repressor of androgen receptor signaling
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell cycle, division
    cell life, differentiation
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component component of cytoplasmic BCL-2 mRNP (messenger ribonucleoprotein particle) complexes
    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • ERBB3 binding protein (role in maintaining AR protein level)
  • interacting with AR (associated with the N-terminal domain of AR)
  • interaction with NPM1 (distinctively binds isoforms and regulates cell proliferation and survival through p42 and p48, respectively)
  • RNF20 acts as an E3 ubiquitin ligase for PA2G4 tumor suppressor and promotes its polyubiquitination and degradation
  • cell & other
