HBXIP functions as a cofactor for survivin: survivin-HBXIP complexes (but neither protein alone) bind pro-caspase-9, preventing its recruitment to Apaf1 and thereby selectively suppressing apoptosis initiated via the mitochondria/cytochrome c pathway. Viral HBx protein also interacts with the survivin-HBXIP complex to suppress caspase activation in a survivin-dependent manner. |

HBXIP is required for bipolar spindle formation and centrosome duplication: HBXIP-deficient cells arrest in prometaphase with monopolar spindles, while HBXIP overexpression causes excessive centrosome replication and tripolar/multipolar spindles. HBXIP associates with microtubules of dividing cells and colocalizes with HBx on centrosomes. HBXIP-deficient cells also fail to complete cytokinesis and undergo apoptosis. In a mouse liver-regeneration model, antisense knockdown of HBXIP impairs hepatocyte growth and survival. |

The CRHK (residues 137-140) motif in HBx is necessary for binding HBXIP. Mutation of this motif abolishes HBx binding to HBXIP, prevents HBx localization to centrosomes, and abrogates HBx-induced dysregulation of centrosome assembly and modifications of pericentrin and centrin-2. Overexpression of HBXIP or HBXIP fragments that bind HBx neutralizes the effects of viral HBx on centrosome dynamics. |

HBXIP up-regulates S100A4 via two pathways: (1) HBXIP directly binds the +200~+239 region of the S100A4 promoter and activates it through interaction with transcription factor STAT4; (2) HBXIP activates PI3K/AKT signaling by inducing DNA methylation of PTEN, which boosts S100A4 expression. Both pathways promote growth and migration of breast cancer cells. |

LAMTOR5 (HBXIP) regulates TLR4 signaling and inflammation: Lamtor5 associates with TLR4 via their LZ/TIR domains and facilitates colocalization at autolysosomes, preventing lysosomal tethering and mTORC1 activation upon LPS stimulation, thereby de-repressing TFEB to promote autophagic degradation of TLR4. Loss of Lamtor5 leads to sustained inflammation and increased mortality in endotoxic shock mice. Leucine deprivation blunts inflammatory signaling through this Lamtor5-dependent mechanism. |
