Facts about Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma translocation protein 1.
Enhances BCL10-induced activation of NF-kappa-B.
Involved in nuclear export of BCL10.Binds to TRAF6, inducing TRAF6 oligomerization and activation of its ligase activity. Has ubiquitin ligase activity.

Highly expressed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Detected at lower levels in bone marrow, thymus and lymph node, and at very low levels in colon and lung.
Cytoplasm, perinuclear region. Nucleus. Shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm. Found in perinuclear structures together with BCL10.
