N-Myc Downstream Regulated 1 Active Protein | NDRG1 active protein
Recombinant Human N-Myc Downstream Regulated 1
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Introduction: NDRG1 is a cytoplasmic protein that is involved in stress responses, hormone responses, cell growth, and differentiation. NDRG1 is one of 4 members of the NDRG ?/?-hydrolase family. NDRG1 is classified in databases as a tumor suppressor and heavy metal-response protein. NDRG1's functions include cell-cycle regulation, cellular differentiation, apoptosis, hypoxia response and metal-ion sensing. NDRG1 is also essential for p53-mediated caspase activation and apoptosis. The NDRG1 is a Rab4a effector that is involved in vesicular recycling of E-cadherin. NDRG1 is ubiquitous; it is expressed most notably in placental membranes and prostate, kidney, small intestine, and ovary tissues. NDRG1 has reduced expression in adenocarcinomas compared to normal tissues. NDRG1 gene mutations are reported to be the cause for hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy-Lom (HMSNL), which is a severe autosomal recessive form of Charcot- Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease. In addition, decreased NDRG1 expression in glioma is linked to tumor progression. On the other hand, overexpression of NDRG1 is connected to malignant status of esophageal cancer. NDRG1 may also have a role in portal vein invasion and intrahepatic metastasis in human hepatocellular carcinoma.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene is a member of the N-myc downregulated gene family which belongs to the alpha/beta hydrolase superfamily. The protein encoded by this gene is a cytoplasmic protein involved in stress responses, hormone responses, cell growth, and differentiation. The encoded protein is necessary for p53-mediated caspase activation and apoptosis. Mutations in this gene are a cause of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4D, and expression of this gene may be a prognostic indicator for several types of cancer. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2012]
Uniprot Description
NDRG1: a hypoxia-inducible anti-apoptotic protein. Promotes proliferation and correlates with invasion, metastasis and poor prognosis in many cancers. Is involved in growth arrest and cell differentiation during development. A ubiquitous Rab4a effector protein that modulates angiogenesis and is involved in vesicular recycling of E-cadherin. Colocalizes with transferrin during the recycling in cells. NDRG1 knockdown delays the recycling rate of transferrin, while its overexpression increases the rate of transferrin recycling. Interacts with SIRT1/p53 signaling to attenuate hypoxic injury in human trophoblasts. Its expression is induced by an elevation of free intracellular calcium ion caused by nickel ion exposure. Highly expressed in placental membranes, prostate, kidney, small intestine, ovary, peripheral nerves and Schwann cells. Defects in NDRG1 are the cause of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4D (CMT4D).
