Function
Isoform 1 is involved as a ribosomal RNA processing factor in ribosome biogenesis. Binds to tightly bent AT-rich stretches of double-stranded DNA.; Isoform 2 binds to double-stranded DNA.

- Par14 can be described as an endogenous non-histone chromatin protein, which binds DNA in vivo PMID: 25645591
- Ca(2+)/Calmodulin binding to the N-terminal of Par17 causes steric hindrance of the Par17 active site, thus interfering with the Par17/tubulin interaction. PMID: 25940090
- Data indicate that Pin1 prolyl isomerase active site cysteine, Cys113, is highly susceptible to oxidation. PMID: 25595659
- Data indicate the association of Par14 with insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) in human HepG2 cells overexpressing both as well as endogenously in the mouse liver. PMID: 23720771
- The N-terminal basic domain of human parvulin hPar14 is responsible for the entry to the nucleus and high-affinity DNA-binding. PMID: 12144781
- subcellular localization and DNA binding properties of hPar14 are regulated by phosphorylation of the N-terminal domain PMID: 12860119
- Identification of a longer Parvulin isoform (Par17) that has an extension at the 5' end including a 75 bp extended open reading frame. PMID: 16522211

Subcellular Location
[Isoform 1]: Nucleus, nucleolus. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle. Cytoplasm. Note=Colocalizes in the nucleolus during interphase and on the spindle apparatus during mitosis with NPM1.; [Isoform 2]: Mitochondrion. Mitochondrion matrix. Note=Imported in a time- and membrane potential-dependent manner to the mitochondrial matrix, but without concomitant processing of the protein. Directed to mitochondria by a novel N-terminal domain that functions as non-cleavable mitochondrial targeting peptide.

Tissue Specificity
Isoform 2 is much more stable than isoform 1 (at protein level). Ubiquitous. Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are expressed in kidney, liver, blood vessel, brain, mammary gland, skeletal muscle, small intestine and submandibularis. Isoform 1 transcripts are much m
