Function | Translation factor that promotes translation elongation and termination, particularly upon ribosome stalling at specific amino acid sequence contexts (PubMed:14622290). Binds between the exit (E) and peptidyl (P) site of the ribosome and promotes rescue of stalled ribosome: specifically required for efficient translation of polyproline-containing peptides as well as other motifs that stall the ribosome. Acts as a ribosome quality control (RQC) cofactor by joining the RQC complex to facilitate peptidyl transfer during CAT tailing step (By similarity). Also involved in actin dynamics and cell cycle progression, mRNA decay and probably in a pathway involved in stress response and maintenance of cell wall integrity (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P63241}. Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P63241}. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P63241}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P63241}; Cytoplasmic side {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P63241}. Note=Hypusine modification promotes the nuclear export and cytoplasmic localization and there was a dynamic shift in the localization from predominantly cytoplasmic to primarily nuclear under apoptotic inducing conditions {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P63241} |
Tissue Location | Expressed in ovarian and colorectal cancer cell lines (at protein level). Highly expressed in testis. Overexpressed in some cancer cells. |
