EEIG1

Key component of TNFSF11/RANKL- and TNF-induced osteoclastogenesis pathways, thereby mediates bone resorption in pathological bone loss conditions (By similarity). Required for TNFSF11/RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis via its interaction with TNFRSF11A/RANK, thereby facilitates the downstream transcription of NFATC1 and activation of PLCG2 (By similarity). Facilitates recruitment of the transcriptional repressor PRDM1/BLIMP1 to the promoter of the anti-osteoclastogenesis gene IRF8, thereby resulting in transcription of osteoclast differentiation factors (By similarity). May play a role in estrogen action..
