Official Full Name: PML nuclear body scaffold
Also known as: MYL; RNF71; PP8675; TRIM19
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the TRIM family. The TRIM motif includes three zinc-binding domains, a RING, a B-box type 1 and a B-box type 2, and a coil region. This phosphorylated protein localizes to nucleosomes, where it functions as a transcription factor and tumor suppressor. Its expression is associated with the cell cycle and regulates the p53 response to oncogenic signals. This gene is often involved in the translocation of the retinoic acid receptor alpha gene associated with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). Extensive alternative splicing of this gene results in several variants in the central and C-terminal regions of the protein; all variants encode the same N-terminus. Alternative splicing transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
