May act as a transcriptional activator/repressor in the myeloid lineage. Plays a role in the granulocyte/monocyte cell-specific response to interferon. Stimulates the DNA binding of the transcriptional repressor protein YY1.
Subcellular locations: Nucleus, Cytoplasm
Uniformly distributed throughout the interphase cell nucleus. Associates with chromatin.
Expressed constitutively in cells of the myeloid lineage. Found in promyelocyte stage cells as well as in all other stage cells including peripheral blood monocytes and granulocytes. Also appears in myeloblast cells in some cases of acute myeloid Leukemia.
