| Function |
Isoform 2: functions as a stress-inducible potent transcriptional activator during endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress by inducing unfolded protein response (UPR) target genes via binding to the UPR element (UPRE). Up-regulates target genes encoding ER chaperones and ER-associated degradation (ERAD) components to enhance the capacity of productive folding and degradation mechanism, respectively, in order to maintain the homeostasis of the ER under ER stress (PubMed:11850408, PubMed:14559994). Plays a role in the production of immunoglobulins and interleukin-6 in the presence of stimuli required for plasma cell differentiation, and promotes as well membrane phospholipid biosynthesis necessary for ER expansion (PubMed:12612580, PubMed:17213183). Contributes to the VEGF- induced endothelial cell (EC) growth and proliferation in a Akt/GSK-dependent and/or -independent signaling pathway, respectively, leading to beta-catenin nuclear translocation and E2F2 gene expression.

Translocates into the nucleus in a PIK3R-, ER stress-induced- and/or insulin-dependent manner (PubMed:20348926). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16332684, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18556558, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20348926, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20955178}.

| Tissue Specificity |
Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are expressed at higher level in branch curves of vessel walls and in atherosclerotic plaques relative to healthy segments of the same aortas (at protein level) (PubMed:19416856). Expressed in skeletal muscles, plasma cells and pancreatic beta cells (PubMed:17612490). Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are expressed in gonadal adipose tissue. Isoform 1 is expressed in inguinal adipose tissue (PubMed:23623498). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17612490, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19416856, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23623498}.
