May be involved in transcriptional regulation. May mediate some of the neuroprotective peptide VIP-associated effects involving normal growth and cancer proliferation. Positively modulates WNT-beta-catenin/CTNN1B signaling, acting by regulating phosphorylation of, and thereby stabilizing, CTNNB1. May be required for neural induction and neuronal differentiation. May be involved in erythroid differentiation (By similarity).
Subcellular locations: Nucleus, Chromosome
Widely expressed. Strong expression in heart, skeletal muscle, kidney and placenta. In brain, expression is stronger in the cerebellum and cortex regions. No expression detected in the colon. Strong increase of expression in colon and breast cancer tissues.
