Primary Identifier | MGI:1891834 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 56312 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables acetyltransferase activator activity and chromatin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of epithelial cell apoptotic process; negative regulation of type B pancreatic cell proliferation; and positive regulation of neuroinflammatory response. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in response to DNA damage by p53 class mediator; negative regulation of fibroblast proliferation; and positive regulation of fibroblast apoptotic process. Predicted to be located in intercellular bridge; nucleoplasm; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of protein-DNA complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including embryo mesenchyme; jaw; orbito-sphenoid; pancreas; and sensory organ. Used to study Sertoli cell-only syndrome. Orthologous to human NUPR1 (nuclear protein 1, transcriptional regulator). PHENOTYPE: MEFs from homozygous null mice display increased cell proliferation and reduced sensitivity to induced apoptosis.
