Suppresses TNF-induced cell death by inhibiting activation of caspases; its transcriptional activity is indispensable for the antiapoptotic function. It may up-regulate antiapoptotic molecules, which in turn inhibit caspase activation (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}. |RPEL| |SAP| |positive regulation of transcription via serum response element binding| |leucine zipper domain binding| |actin monomer binding| |smooth muscle cell differentiation| |muscle cell differentiation| |actin binding| |transcription coactivator activity| |muscle structure development| |actin cytoskeleton organization| |actin filament-based process| |cytoskeleton organization| |positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II| |positive regulation of transcription, DNA-templated| |positive regulation of nucleic acid-templated transcription| |positive regulation of RNA biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of RNA metabolic process| |positive regulation of nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process| |positive regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of cellular biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of gene expression| |positive regulation of biosynthetic process| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp153|SGC2096 2.6μM R03 exp153]]|-1.94| |[[:results:exp531|THZ1 0.06μM R08 exp531]]|-1.74| |[[:results:exp359|FK-506 30μM R07 exp359]]|1.78| |[[:results:exp449|Arsenic trioxide 60μM R08 exp449]]|1.88| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
