CC -!- FUNCTION: Adapter or scaffold protein which participates in the
CC assembly of numerous protein complexes and is involved in several
CC cellular processes such as cell fate determination, cytoskeletal
CC organization, repression of gene transcription, mitosis, cell-cell
CC adhesion, cell differentiation, proliferation and migration.
CC Contributes to the linking and/or strengthening of epithelia cell-cell
CC junctions in part by linking adhesive receptors to the actin
CC cytoskeleton. May be involved in signal transduction from cell adhesion
CC sites to the nucleus. Plays an important role in regulation of the
CC kinase activity of AURKA for mitotic commitment. Also a component of
CC the IL-1 signaling pathway modulating IL-1-induced NFKB1 activation by
CC influencing the assembly and activity of the PRKCZ-SQSTM1-TRAF6
CC multiprotein signaling complex. Functions as an HDAC-dependent
CC corepressor for a subset of GFI1 target genes. Acts as a
CC transcriptional corepressor for SNAI1 and SNAI2/SLUG-dependent
CC repression of E-cadherin transcription. Acts as a hypoxic regulator by
CC bridging an association between the prolyl hydroxylases and VHL
CC enabling efficient degradation of HIF1A. Positively regulates microRNA
CC (miRNA)-mediated gene silencing. Negatively regulates the Hippo
CC signaling pathway and antagonizes phosphorylation of YAP1 (By
CC similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts with GRB2 and PIP5K1B. Interacts with AURKA; the
CC interaction occurs during mitosis and both proteins are phosphorylated
CC as they form a complex. Interacts with CTNNA1 and with F-actin.
CC Interacts with LATS2; the interaction occurs during mitosis and the
CC complex regulates organization of the spindle apparatus through
CC recruitment of TUBG to the centrosome. Forms a complex with SQSTM1,
CC PRKCZ and TRAF6. Component of the GFI1-AJUBA-HDAC1 repressor complex.
CC Interacts directly (via the LIM domains) with GFI1; the interaction
CC results in the HDAC-dependent corepression of a subset of GFI1 target
CC genes, and is independent of the GFI1 SNAG domain. Interacts with
CC HDAC1, HDAC2 and HDAC3 (By similarity). Interacts with SLC1A2.
CC Interacts with EIF4E, AGO1, AGO2, DCP2, DDX6, LATS1, LATS2, SAV1,
CC EGLN2/PHD1 and EGLN3/PHD3. Interacts (via LIM domains) with VHL (By
CC similarity). Interacts (via LIM domains) with SNAI1 (via SNAG domain),
CC SNAI2/SLUG (via SNAG domain) and SCRT1 (via SNAG domain) (By
CC similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11860269}. Cell membrane
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11860269}. Cell junction {ECO:0000250}. Nucleus
CC {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center,
CC centrosome {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasm, P-body {ECO:0000250}.
CC Note=Shuttles between the cytoplasm and the nucleus (By similarity).
CC Localizes on centrosomes during G2-M phase (By similarity). Colocalizes
CC with GFI1 in the nucleus (By similarity). Preferentially colocalizes
CC with cadherin-adhesive complexes at sites of cell-cell contacts.
CC {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in the brain, testis, kidney, heart, lung
CC and liver. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11860269}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: LIM region interacts with CTNNA1. The preLIM region binds
CC directly actin filaments (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: LIM-2 and LIM-3 domains mediate the interaction with the N-
CC terminal region of AURKA. The association between LATS2 and AJUBA
CC required the second LIM domain of AJUBA (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- PTM: Phosphorylated by LATS2 during mitosis. Phosphorylated by AURKA
CC (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: 'Ajuba' means 'curiosity' in Urdu, an Indian dialect.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the zyxin/ajuba family. {ECO:0000305}.
