Background
Vasoactive intestinal peptide is a neuroprotective factor that has a stimulatory effect on the growth of some tumor cells and an inhibitory effect on others. This gene encodes a protein that is upregulated by vasoactive intestinal peptide and may be involved in its stimulatory effect on certain tumor cells. The encoded protein contains one homeobox and nine zinc finger domains, suggesting that it functions as a transcription factor. This gene is also upregulated in normal proliferative tissues. Finally, the encoded protein may increase the viability of certain cell types through modulation of p53 activity. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
Function
function:Potential transcription factor. May mediate some of the neuroprotective peptide VIP-associated effects involving normal growth and cancer proliferation.,PTM:Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR.,similarity:Contains 1 homeobox DNA-binding domain.,similarity:Contains 9 C2H2-type zinc fingers.,tissue specificity: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.,
