• Entrez Summary: N/A
• UniProt Summary: Involved in gene transcription regulation (PubMed:28106301, PubMed:21730289). Acts in concert with the corepressor URI1 to regulate androgen receptor AR-mediated transcription (PubMed:11854421, PubMed:21730289). Together with URI1, associates with chromatin to the NKX3-1 promoter region (PubMed:21730289). Negatively regulates the transcriptional activity of the estrogen receptor ESR1 by inducing its translocation into the cytoplasm (PubMed:28106301). May act as nuclear chaperone that facilitates the formation of the NF-kappa-B enhanceosome and thus positively regulates NF-kappa-B transcription activity (PubMed:17620405, PubMed:21307340). Potential component of mitochondrial-associated LRPPRC, a multidomain organizer that potentially integrates mitochondria and the microtubular cytoskeleton with chromosome remodeling (PubMed:17554592). Increasing concentrations of UXT contributes to progressive aggregation of mitochondria and cell death potentially through its association with LRPPRC (PubMed:17554592). Suppresses cell transformation and it might mediate this function by interaction and inhibition of the biological activity of cell proliferation and survival stimulatory factors like MECOM (PubMed:17635584). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11827465, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11854421, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16221885, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17554592, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17620405, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17635584, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21307340, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21730289, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28106301}.
