NCI: The gene encoding this protein is similar to a mouse putative tumor suppressor gene that is frequently disrupted by mouse AIDS-related virus (MRV). The protein, which is found in the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum, is similar to Jaw1, a lymphoid-restricted protein whose expression is downregulated during myeloid differentiation. Therefore, this gene may be a myeloid leukemia tumor suppressor gene. This protein is an inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate-associated cGMP kinase substrate. Calcium release from the endoplasmic reticulum controls a number of cellular processes, including proliferation and contraction of smooth muscle and other cells and contributes to the antiproliferative and proapoptotic effects of nitric oxide and cGMP.
