About PINX1

Enables telomerase RNA binding activity and telomerase inhibitor activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of macromolecule metabolic process; positive regulation of protein localization to nucleolus; and protein localization to organelle. Acts upstream of or within telomere maintenance via telomerase. Located in several cellular components, including chromosomal region; nuclear lumen; and spindle. Implicated in hepatocellular carcinoma. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]
