Product Specs

Introduction
TRIAP1, a protein with a p53-binding site in its second exon, plays a role in apoptosis regulation. Its expression is reduced by small interfering RNA, leading to enhanced apoptosis. Conversely, TRIAP1 overexpression protects cells from apoptosis induced by DNA damage. Interestingly, TRIAP1 is highly induced in response to low levels of genotoxic stress but not severe DNA damage. It regulates apoptotic pathways through interaction with Hsp70, which inhibits the activity of apoptosis protease activating factor-1.

Product Science Overview

Introduction

TP53 Regulated Inhibitor Of Apoptosis 1 (TRIAP1), also known as p53CSV or WF-1, is a protein encoded by the TRIAP1 gene in humans. This protein plays a crucial role in the regulation of apoptosis, a process of programmed cell death that is essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis and preventing cancer development .

Gene and Protein Structure

The TRIAP1 gene is located on chromosome 12 and encodes a small, evolutionarily conserved protein consisting of 76 amino acids . The protein is primarily found in the mitochondrial intermembrane space and the nucleoplasm, where it forms part of a protein-containing complex .

Function and Mechanism

TRIAP1 is involved in several critical cellular processes, including:

  • DNA Damage Response: It contributes to the DNA damage response by interacting with the p53 protein, a well-known tumor suppressor .
  • Apoptosis Regulation: TRIAP1 inhibits the activation of caspase-9, a key enzyme in the apoptotic pathway, thereby preventing the induction of apoptosis .
  • Phospholipid Transport: The TRIAP1:PRELID1 and TRIAP1:PRELID3A complexes mediate the transfer of phosphatidic acid (PA) between liposomes, ensuring the accumulation of cardiolipin (CL) in mitochondrial membranes .
Role in Cancer

TRIAP1 has been shown to be upregulated in various types of cancers, including breast cancer. Its overexpression is associated with increased drug resistance, making it a potential target for cancer therapy . By binding to HSP70 in the cytoplasm, TRIAP1 blocks the formation of the apoptosome and caspase-9 activation, thereby promoting cell survival and drug resistance .

Research and Therapeutic Potential

Research has demonstrated that downregulation of TRIAP1 impairs cell growth in the presence of chemotherapeutic agents like doxorubicin, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target . Strategies to inhibit TRIAP1 activity could enhance the effectiveness of cancer treatments and overcome drug resistance.
