Name
Thyroid hormone receptor-associated protein (100 kDa)
Symbol
TRAP100

Overview

TRAP100 was originally isolated as part of a biochemical screen for in vitro thyroid hormone receptor-associated proteins (TRAPs). It was subsequently identified as a nuclear receptor coregulator based on its role as a coactivator for the androgen receptor (AR).

Expression

TRAP100 is expressed at low to moderate levels in tissues in major physiological systems (central nervous system (CNS), endocrine, metabolic, gastrointestinal, immune, reproductive, structural) with particularly high levels in the testis, thymus, adrenal gland and brain.

Diseases

TRAP100 has been shown to be overexpressed in breast cancer.

Phenotypes

Targeted disruption (knockout) of the murine TRAP100 component of this complex has revealed that it is not essential for cell viability per se. However, null mutant mice die at an early developmental stage with severe malformations
