Disease

[PQBP1_HUMAN] X-linked intellectual deficit, Sutherland-Haan type;X-linked intellectual deficit, Golabi-Ito-Hall type;X-linked intellectual deficit, Porteous type;Hamel cerebro-palato-cardiac syndrome. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Function

[TXN4A_HUMAN] Essential role in pre-mRNA splicing. [PQBP1_HUMAN] May suppress the ability of POU3F2 to transactivate the DRD1 gene in a POU3F2 dependent manner. Can activate transcription directly or via association with the transcription machinery. May be involved in ATXN1 mutant-induced cell death. The interaction with ATXN1 mutant reduces levels of phosphorylated RNA polymerase II large subunit.^{[1] [2] [3]}
