Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Transcriptional factor that binds to the consensus sequence 5'-[GT][AG][AGT]GGGG-3' and acts as a repressor of autophagy. Specifically represses expression of genes involved in autophagy and lysosome biogenesis/function such as MAP1LC3B, ULK1 or WIPI2. Associates with chromatin at the ITGB4 and VEGF promoters (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Subcellular Localization Nucleus {ECO:0000255PROSITE- ProRule:PRU00187}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Note=Mainly localizes in the nucleus. Under starvation conditions translocates to the cytoplasm, allowing expression of target genes involved in autophagy and lysosome biogenesis/function (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Expressed in heart, brain, spleen, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and testis. {ECO:0000269PubMed:11342224}.
