TIF2 (NCOA2) was cloned as a 160 kDa nuclear protein that interacts with nuclear receptors (NRs) in vivo in an agonist-dependent manner, binds directly to the ligand-binding domains (LBDs) of NRs in an agonist- and AF-2-integrity-dependent manner in vitro, harbors an autonomous transcriptional activation function, relieves NR autosquelching, and enhances AF-2 activity when overexpressed, establishing it as a bona fide coactivator of NR AF-2. |

The rat homolog of TIF2 (NCOA2) contains three short conserved NR box motifs (LXXLL) in its receptor interaction domain (NID); all three NR boxes are necessary and sufficient for interaction with nuclear hormone receptors, individual boxes display preference for certain receptors, and cooperative binding of two TIF2 molecules to a heterodimeric NR complex occurs even with only one cognate ligand, revealing an allosteric effect on the heterodimeric partner. |

TIF2 (NCOA2) possesses a single NR interaction domain (NID) composed of three NR-interacting modules each containing the LxxLL (NR box) motif; the AD1 activation domain activity is mediated through CBP (and could not be separated mutationally from the CBP interaction domain), while AD2 activity does not involve CBP. An NID peptide acting as dominant-negative blocked AF-2 of several NRs in mammalian cells, confirming that endogenous TIF2 mediates NR AF-2 activity. |

HEY1-NCOA2 fusion protein preferentially binds to promoter regions of canonical HEY1 targets (ChIP-seq) and causes transactivation of HEY1 target genes (RNA-seq), significantly enhancing cell proliferation in iPSC-derived mesenchymal stem cells; the fusion specifically upregulates PDGFB and PDGFRA and dramatically increases phospho-AKT (Ser473) levels, effects not observed with wildtype HEY1 or wildtype NCOA2 alone, providing a mechanistic rationale for PDGF/PI3K/AKT inhibition in mesenchymal chondrosarcoma. |

Ncoa2 (NCOA2) promotes CD8+ T cell-mediated antitumor immunity by upregulating PGC-1α expression to enhance mitochondrial function; T-cell activation-induced CREB phosphorylation triggers Ncoa2 recruitment to enhancers to stimulate PGC-1α transcription (ChIP); Ncoa2-deficient CD8+ T cells (Ncoa2fl/fl/CD4Cre) fail to increase mitochondrial mass, show impaired oxidative phosphorylation, and produce less IFNγ; forced PGC-1α expression rescues mitochondrial function and antitumor immunity. |

SRC-1 and TIF2 (NCOA2) interact with HIF-1α and enhance its transactivation potential in a hypoxia-dependent manner; SRC-1 and TIF2 bind both C-terminal transactivation domains of HIF-1α; SRC-1 cooperates with CBP in synergy; the redox regulatory protein Ref-1 strongly potentiates SRC-1/CBP effects on HIF-1α, establishing TIF2/SRC-1 as components of the hypoxia signaling pathway. |

TIF2 (NCOA2) mediates synergy between RARα1 AF-1 and AF-2 by bridging both activation domains; bridging requires region A of RARα1 and the AD1 domain of TIF2; this RAR isotype-selective interaction requires additional unknown factors and is absent with SRC-1, establishing the first functional distinction between p160 family members for a specific NR isotype. |

PIAS3 interacts with TIF2 (NCOA2) in vivo and in vitro through two distinct non-contiguous regions of TIF2 and a unique acidic domain of PIAS3 conserved in the PIAS family; PIAS3 modulates TIF2-mediated ligand-enhanced transcriptional activation positively or negatively depending on the steroid receptor examined. |

SRC-1 and TIF2 (NCOA2) have partially redundant functions in Sertoli cells: compound SRC-1/TIF2 knockout mice show that SRC-1 can partially compensate for TIF2 loss in mouse survival and growth, and TIF2/SRC-1 double deficiency uniformly accelerates the variable spermatogenesis defects of TIF2 single knockout, demonstrating functional redundancy in Sertoli cells alongside distinct physiological roles. |

TIF2 deletion in mice causes adrenocortical insufficiency: TIF2−/− mice display altered expression of glucocorticoid-dependent HPA axis components, significantly lower basal corticosterone and blunted stress responses, pronounced structural and functional aberrations in the zona fasciculata, and altered expression of nuclear receptors DAX-1 and SF-1 in the adrenal cortex, demonstrating that TIF2 is required for normal adrenocortical development and steroid biosynthesis. |

SRC-2 (NCOA2) and SRC-3 interact with PPARγ to coordinate transcriptional circuits promoting adipogenesis; individual or combined knockdown of SRC-2 and SRC-3 equally inhibits lipid accumulation by preventing lipogenic gene engagement; SRC-2/SRC-3 knockdown increases phospho-PPARγ-Ser114 (an inhibitor of PPARγ transcriptional activity), indicating that SRC-2 promotes adipogenesis partly by attenuating inhibitory PPARγ phosphorylation. |
