Following infection, participates in the differentiation of CD8(+) thymic conventional dendritic cells in the immune system. Acts via the formation of a heterodimer with JUN family proteins that recognizes and binds DNA sequence 5'-TGA[CG]TCA-3' and regulates expression of target genes (By similarity). Selectively suppresses CYR61/CCN1 transcription and hence blocks the downstream cell proliferation signals produced by CYR61 and inhibits CYR61-induced anchorage-independent growth and invasion in several cancer types, such as breast cancer, malignant glioma and metastatic melanoma. Possibly acts by interfering with AP-1 binding to CYR61 promoter. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20531301}. |bZIP 1| |bZIP 2| |myeloid dendritic cell differentiation| |myeloid dendritic cell activation| |defense response to protozoan| |response to protozoan| |dendritic cell differentiation| |myeloid leukocyte differentiation| |myeloid cell differentiation| |leukocyte differentiation| |RNA polymerase II proximal promoter sequence-specific DNA binding| |hemopoiesis| |myeloid leukocyte activation| |hematopoietic or lymphoid organ development| |immune system development| |leukocyte activation| |defense response to other organism| |cell activation| |response to other organism| |response to external biotic stimulus| |response to biotic stimulus| |defense response| |DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
