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 transcription, DNA-templated. Located in endoplasmic reticulum; nuclear lumen; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Implicated in hepatocellular carcinoma. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
