| Tissue Specificity | Highly expressed in the prostate and, at a lower level, in the testis. |
| Post Translational Modifications | Ubiquitinated by TOPORS.monoubiquitinated at several residues and also polyubiquitinated on single residues. |
| Function | Transcription factor, which binds preferentially the consensus sequence 5'-TAAGTAG-3' and can behave as a transcriptional repressor. Plays an important role in normal prostate development, regulating proliferation of glandular epithelium and in the formation of ducts in prostate. Acts as a tumor suppressor controlling prostate carcinogenesis, as shown by the ability to inhibit proliferation and invasion activities of PC-3 prostate cancer cells. |
