Function
- component of the integrator complex
- role in tumor suppression (putative)
- ectopic expression suppresses tumor cell growth
Structure
- contains 1 VWFA domain
Compartment
Alternative splicing
named isoforms=2
Expression
- widely expressed, including heart, brain, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney, pancreas
Pathology
- frequently down-regulated in non small cell lung carcinomas & prostate cancers
- down-regulation in prostate cancer is due to CpG hypermethylation of its promoter
