Literature associating URI1 and neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation 4
URI1 [ENSP00000376097]
Unconventional prefoldin RPB5 interactor 1; Involved in gene transcription regulation. Acts as a transcriptional repressor in concert with the corepressor UXT to regulate androgen receptor (AR) transcription. May act as a tumor suppressor to repress AR-mediated gene transcription and to inhibit anchorage-independent growth in prostate cancer cells. Required for cell survival in ovarian cancer cells. Together with UXT, associates with chromatin to the NKX3-1 promoter region. Antagonizes transcriptional modulation via hepatitis B virus X protein; Belongs to the RNA polymerase II subunit 5-mediating protein family.
Synonyms: URI1, URI1p, hURI1, I3L0K5, I3L104 ...
