Function | Transcription factor, which has both transcriptional activation and repression activities (PubMed:31905202). Also modulates chromatin accessibility (PubMed:38361031). In complex with HCFC1 and ZNF143, regulates the expression of several genes, including AP2S1, ESCO2, OPHN1, RBL1, UBXN8 and ZNF32 (PubMed:26416877). May regulate the expression of genes that encode both cytoplasmic and mitochondrial ribosomal proteins (By similarity). Required for normal mitochondrial development and function. Regulates mitochondrial gene expression, including that of components of the electron transport chain (By similarity). Involved in the maintainance of pluripotency in early embryonic cells, possibly through its action on mitochondrial maturation which is required to meet high energy demands of these cells (By similarity). Required for early development of retina, preventing premature exit of retinal progenitor cells from the cell cycle. This effect may also be mediated by its action on mitochondria (By similarity). Through the regulation of MMACHC gene expression, controls cobalamin metabolism (PubMed:28449119, PubMed:31905202). Required for normal brain development and neural precursor differentiation (By similarity). Involved in cell growth (PubMed:31905202). |
Cellular Location | Nucleus. Cytoplasm Note=In oocytes, detected in the ooplasm, without evidence of its presence in the nucleus (By similarity). Found in the nucleus of undifferentiated embryonic stem cells (PubMed:18585351). Evenly distributed between nucleus and cytoplasm in skin fibroblasts (PubMed:37148549). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9JJD0, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18585351, ECO:0000269|PubMed:37148549} |
Tissue Location | Expressed in skin fibroblasts. |

Background
The THAP domain-contining protein 11 (THAP11), also known as Ronin, is an essential factor involved in embryonic stem (ES) cell pluripotency and cell growth (1). THAP 11 contains a THAP domain, a conserved DNA-binding domain common to many proteins associated with chromatin modification and gene expression silencing, and has striking similarity to the site-specific DNA-binding domain (DBD) of Drosophila P element transposases (2). THAP11 can also negatively regulate CD44 v6 expression through its interaction with the poly(rC) binding protein PCBP1 (3).
