background:
This gene encodes a multiple SH3 domain-containing protein, which interacts with other proteins, such as EBP and members of ADAM family, via the SH3 domains. This protein may be involved in suppression of Ras-induced cellular transformation and Ras-mediated activation of ELK1 by EBP, and regulation of ADAM proteins in the signaling of EGFR-ligand shedding. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
Function:
May play a role in regulating A disintegrin and metalloproteases (ADAMs) in the signaling of EGFR-ligand shedding. May be involved in suppression of Ras-induced cellular transformation and Ras-mediated activation of ELK1.
Subcellular Location:
Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Is recruited to the nucleus by the MLL-EEN fusion protein;.
Tissue Specificity:
Widely expressed with highest levels in heart, skeletal muscle, kidney, liver, placenta, small intestine and lung. Expressed at low levels in colon, thymus, spleen and leukocytes.
Similarity:
Contains 5 SH3 domains.
