Summary

This gene encodes a HTLV-1 tax1 binding protein. The encoded protein interacts with TNFAIP3, and inhibits TNF-induced apoptosis by mediating the TNFAIP3 anti-apoptotic activity. Degradation of this protein by caspase-3-like family proteins is associated with apoptosis induced by TNF. This protein may also have a role in the inhibition of inflammatory signaling pathways. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, May 2011]

Forensic Context

A study in mice demonstrated that chronic methamphetamine administration significantly dysregulates the TAX1BP1 in microglia, where it is associated with the mitophagy pathway [Oladapo et al. DOI:10.3390/Ijms26020649].
