Background
PIAS2, PIASX, E3 SUMO-protein ligase PIAS2, Androgen receptor-interacting protein 3, ARIP3, DAB2-interacting protein, DIP, Msx-interacting zinc finger protein, Miz1, PIAS-NY protein, Protein inhibitor of activated STAT x, Protein inhibitorPIAS2 encodes a member of the protein inhibitor of activated STAT (PIAS) family. PIAS proteins function as SUMO E3 ligases and play important roles in many cellular processes by mediating the sumoylation of target proteins. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for PIAS2. Isoforms of protein inhibitor of activated STAT 2 enhance the sumoylation of specific target proteins including the p53 tumor suppressor protein, c-Jun, and the androgen receptor. A pseudogene of PIAS2 is located on the short arm of chromosome 4. The symbol MIZ1 has also been associated with ZBTB17 which is a different gene located on chromosome 1.
