It is found mainly in the fluid surrounding the cell nucleus (cytoplasm), and studies suggest that its function depends on interacting with other proteins. It is thought to act as a tumour suppressor, which means that it helps to prevent cells from growing and dividing too rapidly or in an uncontrolled way.
