CC -!- FUNCTION: Transcriptional regulator that acts as a repressor or an
CC activator. Acts as a transcriptional transactivator on the proximal
CC promoter region of the tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) E-box
CC containing promoter. Collaborates with MITF in target gene activation.
CC Acts as a transcriptional repressor on minimal promoter containing
CC element F (that includes an E-box sequence) (By similarity). Binds to
CC element F in an E-box sequence-specific manner (By similarity). Acts as
CC a transcriptional repressor on minimal promoter containing mu E3
CC enhancer sequence (By similarity). Binds to mu E3 DNA sequence of the
CC immunoglobulin heavy-chain gene enhancer (By similarity). Binds DNA in
CC a homo- or heterodimeric form. {ECO:0000250,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:11818452}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer. Forms heterodimers with MITF. Interacts with MITF.
CC Forms heterodimers with TFE3 (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00981}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in osteoclast-like cells (at protein
CC level). Expressed in cells of the mononuclear phagocyte lineage.
CC Expressed in macrophages and in osteoclast-like cells.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9973413}.
CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Expressed in the early developing retinal
CC pigmented epithelium and in the peripheral retina.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15459106}.
CC -!- INDUCTION: Up-regulated in bone marrow-derived macrophages by Th2
CC cytokines, IL-4, IL-13 and LPS. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15908341}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Contains an activation domain in the C-terminal region.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the MiT/TFE family. {ECO:0000305}.
