Function | Binds directly to 5'-TTAGGG-3' repeats in telomeric DNA (PubMed:23813958, PubMed:23685356). Associates with the telomerase complex at sites of active telomere processing and positively regulates telomere elongation (PubMed:23685356). Important for TERT binding to chromatin, indicating a role in recruitment of the telomerase complex to telomeres (By similarity). Also plays a role in the alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT) pathway in telomerase-negative cells where it promotes formation and/or maintenance of ALT-associated promyelocytic leukemia bodies (APBs) (PubMed:23813958). Enhances formation of telomere C-circles in ALT cells, suggesting a possible role in telomere recombination (PubMed:23813958). Might also be involved in the DNA damage response at telomeres (PubMed:23813958). |
Cellular Location | Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Chromosome, telomere. Nucleus, Cajal body. Nucleus, PML body. Note=Predominantly detected in cytoplasm (PubMed:16825764, PubMed:19728927). Localizes in a dynamic manner to actively processed telomeres (PubMed:23685356). Localizes to the periphery of Cajal bodies (PubMed:23685356). Associates with PML nuclear bodies in telomerase-negative cells (PubMed:23813958) |
Tissue Location | Ubiquitous. Detected in pancreas, brain, spleen, placenta, prostate, thymus, liver, heart, bone marrow, skeletal muscle, stomach, uterus, testis, kidney, ovary, colon, lung, cardiac muscle and thyroid gland. |

Background
Transcription factor. Isoform 1 acts as a transcriptional repressor. Isoform 4 has very low activity as a transcriptional repressor.
