Subcellular location

Subcellular Location:
Isoform 1: Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Note=Isoform 1 localizes predominantly to the nucleus.; Isoform 2: Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Note=Isoform 2 localizes to the cytoplasm and shuttles into the nucleus in response to heat shock.; Isoform 4: Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Note=Isoform 4 localizes predominantly to the cytoplasm. The cellular background in which it is expressed can influence whether it resides primarily in the cytoplasm or is also found in the nucleus. In the presence of BCL2, localizes to intracellular membranes (what appears to be the nuclear envelope and perinuclear membranes) as well as punctate cytosolic structures suggestive of mitochondria.

Function

Function:
Inhibits the chaperone activity of HSP70/HSC70 by promoting substrate release. Inhibits the pro-apoptotic function of PPP1R15A, and has anti-apoptotic activity. Markedly increases the anti-cell death function of BCL2 induced by various stimuli.
