PAGE4

This gene is a member of the GAGE family. The GAGE genes are expressed in a variety of tumors and in some fetal and reproductive tissues. This gene is strongly expressed in prostate and prostate cancer, but is also expressed in other male and female reproductive tissues including testis, fallopian tube, uterus, and placenta, as well as in testicular cancer and uterine cancer. The protein encoded by this gene shares sequence similarity with other GAGE/PAGE proteins, and also belongs to a family of CT (cancer-testis) antigens. [provided by RefSeq]

Intrinsically disordered protein that potentiates the transcriptional activator activity of JUN (PubMed:24263171, PubMed:28289210).
Protects cells from stress-induced apoptosis by inhibiting reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and via regulation of the MAPK signaling pathway (PubMed:21357425, PubMed:25374899, PubMed:30658679).

HIPK1-mediated phosphorylation at Thr-51 leads to the compaction of its intrinsically disordered conformation and is critical for its ability to potentiate the transcriptional activator activity of JUN inspite of a reduced interaction with JUN (PubMed:24559171, PubMed:26242913).
CLK2-mediated phosphorylation at multiple Ser and Thr residues attenuates its ability to potentiate JUN transcriptional activator activity (PubMed:28289210).
