    basic FUNCTION
  • may play a role in embryonal development and tumor transformation or aspect of tumor progression
  • being a unique androgen receptor coregulator that increases androgen receptor activity by modulating the androgen receptor interdomain interaction
  • coregulator function of MAGEA11 extends to isoform-specific regulation of PGR during the cyclic development of the human endometrium
  • mediates the stimulatory effects of cyclic AMP on androgen receptor (AR) transcriptional activity in prostate cancer
  • is required for normal AR function during human male fetal development
  • is potentially a proto-oncogene whose increased expression in prostate cancer reverses RBL1 from a transcriptional repressor to a transcriptional activator of the androgen receptor and E2F1

    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • androgen receptor NH(2)-terminal FXXLF motif (alpha-helical region)
  • is an AR coregulator that specifically binds the AR NH(2)-terminal FXXLF motif and modulates the AR NH(2)- and carboxyl-terminal N/C interaction to increase AR transcriptional activity
  • MAGEA11 links N-terminal domains of AR and EP300 to promote transcriptional synergy through a cadre of FXXLF-related interacting motifs
  • coregulator effects of MAGEA11 on the AR N and C-terminal interaction amplify the androgen-dependent transcriptional response to EP300 required for normal human male sex development in utero
  • increases AR transcriptional activity by forming a molecular bridge between transcriptionally active AR dimers
  • interacts with the AR N-terminal FXXLF motif, increases AR-(1–660) activity directly, and increases the activity of wild-type AR in the absence or presence of androgen
  • MAGEA11 interaction with RBL1 was associated with transcriptional repression in cells with low MAGEA11 and transcriptional activation in cells with higher MAGEA11
  • notable correlation between MAGEA5 and MAGEA11 and lower efficacy of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in Head and Neck Cancer

    REGULATION
    Other DNA methylation regulates nucleosome occupancy at MAGEA11, and this appears to function cooperatively with sequence-specific transcription factors to regulate gene expression
