Function |
Plays a role as a transcriptional repressor during development. May play a role in the control of cell survival. Overexpression of RERE recruits BAX to the nucleus particularly to POD and triggers caspase-3 activation, leading to cell death. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11331249}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Nucleus {ECO:0000255|PROSITE- ProRule:PRU00512, ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00624, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10814707, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11331249}. Note=Localized in nuclear bodies of variables size. Colocalized with PML and BAX in nuclear PODs.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Widely expressed. Expressed in tumor cell lines. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10729226, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10814707, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11331249}.
