Isoform 2 may participate in the regulation of nucleoplasmic coilin protein interactions in neuronal and transformed cells.; Isoform 3 can regulate global protein synthesis by altering nucleolar numbers. ; Isoform 4 may play a role as a modulator of APP processing. Overexpression can down-regulate APP processing.
Cytoplasm .; [Isoform 2]: Nucleus.; [Isoform 3]: Cell junction, synapse, postsynaptic density. Cell projection, dendritic spine. Nucleus. Nucleus, Cajal body. The synaptic localization requires DLG4 interaction. Translocation to the nucleus in response to stimulation of NMDA receptors (NMDARs) in a calcium-independent manner (By similarity). .; [Isoform 4]: Nucleus. The interaction with APP causes its partial exclusion from the nucleus, when APP is overexpressed.; [Isoform 6]: Nucleus.
Highly expressed in marrow from patients with pre-B ALL associated with the t(1;19) translocation. Strongly expressed in brain and testis. Expressed in fetal brain. Isoform 4 is highly expressed in brain (at protein level). Isoform 6 is expressed in brain and several cancer cell lines.
