| Description | Transcription regulator of hematopoietic cell differentiation. Binds gamma-satellite DNA. Binds with higher affinity to gamma satellite A. Plays a role in the development of lymphocytes, B- and T-cells. Binds and activates the enhancer (delta-A element) of the CD3-delta gene. Repressor of the TDT (terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase) gene during thymocyte differentiation. Regulates transcription through association with both HDAC-dependent and HDAC-independent complexes. Targets the 2 chromatin-remodeling complexes, NuRD and BAF (SWI/SNF), in a single complex (PYR complex), to the beta-globin locus in adult erythrocytes. Increases normal apoptosis in adult erythroid cells. Confers early temporal competence to retinal progenitor cells (RPCs). Transcription regulator of hematopoietic cell differentiation.

Increases normal apoptosis in adult erythroid cells. Confers early temporal competence to retinal progenitor cells (RPCs) (By similarity)Subunit structure: Heterodimer with other IKAROS family members. Interacts with IKZF4 AND IKZF5. Component of the chromatin-remodeling NuRD repressor complex which includes at least HDAC1, HDAC2, RBBP4, RBBP7, IKZF1, MTA2, MBD2, MBD3, MTA1L1, CHD3 and CHD4. Interacts directly with the CHD4 component of the NuRD complex. Component of the BAF (SWI/SNF) gene activator complex which includes ACTB, ARID1A, ARID1B, IKZF1, ARID1A, ARID1B, SMARCA2, SMARCA4 and at least one BAF subunit. Interacts directly with the SMARCA4 component of the BAF complex. Interacts with SUMO1, the interaction sumoylates IKAROS, promoted by PIAS2 and PIAS3. Interacts with PIAS2 (isoform alpha), the interaction promotes sumoylation and reduces transcription repression. Interacts, to a lesser extent, with PIAS3. Interacts with PPP1CC, the interaction targets PPP1CC to pericentromeric heterochromatin, dephosphorylates IKAROS, stabilizes it and prevents it from degradation. Interacts with IKZF3Subcellular location: NucleusSequence similarities: Belongs to the Ikaros C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family. Contains 6 C2H2-type zinc fingers |
