Function
Menin or multiple endocrine neoplasia I (Men) is a putative tumor suppressor. Men possesses two functional nuclear localization signals and inhibits transcriptional activation by JunD[1].
Disease
Men mutations may be a common mechanism for inactivating tumor suppressor gene products in familial cancer[2].
Structural highlights
