  • in cells under stress, translocation of PAGE4 to mitochondria increases while production of reactive oxygen species decreases
  • basic FUNCTION
  • multi-functional cytokine that plays a fundamental role during embryonic development
  • is the first example of a cancer/testis antigens (CTA) that is an intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) with an anti-apoptotic function
  • in cells under stress, translocation of PAGE4 to mitochondria increases while production of reactive oxygen species decreases
  • PAGE4 may be contributing to the development of PCa by playing a stress-protective and anti-apoptotic role
  • appears to act both as an oncogenic factor as well as a metastasis suppressor

    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • JUN is a PAGE4 interacting partner(involved in the phosphorylation of PAGE4, and PAGE4 robustly potentiates JUN transactivation
  • induces conformational changes in natively disordered PAGE4 resulting in its decreased affinity for JUN to promote interaction of JUN with another, unidentified, partner
  • HIPK1-phosphorylated PAGE4 (HIPK1-PAGE4) potentiates JUN, whereas CLK2-phosphorylated PAGE4 (CLK2-PAGE4) attenuates JUN activity
  • conformational switching of PAGE4 may potentially affect the efficiency of therapeutically targeting AR activity
  • hyperphosphorylation of PAGE4 by CLK2 attenuates this interaction with AP1
  • cell & other
