IER3
geneOn this page
Also known as IEX-1DIF-2PRG1IEX-1L
Summary
IER3 (immediate early response 3, HGNC:5392) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 6p21.33, encoding Radiation-inducible immediate-early gene IEX-1 (P46695). May play a role in the ERK signaling pathway by inhibiting the dephosphorylation of ERK by phosphatase PP2A-PPP2R5C holoenzyme.
This gene functions in the protection of cells from Fas- or tumor necrosis factor type alpha-induced apoptosis. Partially degraded and unspliced transcripts are found after virus infection in vitro, but these transcripts are not found in vivo and do not generate a valid protein.

Function. May play a role in the ERK signaling pathway by inhibiting the dephosphorylation of ERK by phosphatase PP2A-PPP2R5C holoenzyme. Also acts as an ERK downstream effector mediating survival. As a member of the NUPR1/RELB/IER3 survival pathway, may provide pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma with remarkable resistance to cell stress, such as starvation or gemcitabine treatment.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with the PPP2R5C-PP2A holoenzyme and ERK kinases; regulates ERK dephosphorylation.
Subcellular location. Membrane.
Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylated at Thr-18, Thr-123 and Ser-126 by MAPK1/ERK2 and probably MAPK3/ERK1. Upon phosphorylation by MAPK1/ERK2 and MAPK3/ERK1, acquires the ability to inhibit cell death induced by various stimuli. Glycosylated.
Induction. By radiation, 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13 acetate (TPA), okadaic acid, TNF and NUPR1.
Similarity. Belongs to the IER3 family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 18 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
