geneOn this page
Also known as LYRIC3D3AEG-1
Summary
MTDH (metadherin, HGNC:29608) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 8q22.1, encoding Protein LYRIC (Q86UE4). Down-regulates SLC1A2/EAAT2 promoter activity when expressed ectopically.
Enables NF-kappaB binding activity; double-stranded RNA binding activity; and transcription coactivator activity. Involved in several processes, including lipopolysaccharide-mediated signaling pathway; positive regulation of intracellular signal transduction; and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Located in endoplasmic reticulum; nuclear lumen; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Implicated in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Function. Down-regulates SLC1A2/EAAT2 promoter activity when expressed ectopically. Activates the nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-kappa-B) transcription factor. Promotes anchorage-independent growth of immortalized melanocytes and astrocytes which is a key component in tumor cell expansion. Promotes lung metastasis and also has an effect on bone and brain metastasis, possibly by enhancing the seeding of tumor cells to the target organ endothelium. Induces chemoresistance.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with BCCIP, CREBBP/CBP and RELA/p65.
Subcellular location. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Nucleus membrane. Cell junction. Tight junction. Nucleus. Nucleolus. Cytoplasm. Perinuclear region.
Tissue specificity. Widely expressed with highest levels in muscle-dominating organs such as skeletal muscle, heart, tongue and small intestine and in endocrine glands such as thyroid and adrenal gland. Overexpressed in various cancers including breast, brain, prostate, melanoma and glioblastoma multiforme.
Induction. By TNF (at protein level). By HIV-1 infection of primary fetal astrocytes.
Miscellaneous. Knockdown significantly reduces the adhesion of cancer cells to lung microvascular endothelial cells and the reciprocal effect is observed following overexpression.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 169 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.
