tumor protein p53 regulated apoptosis inducing protein 1

Symbol

TP53AIP1 (may also be known as: None)

Organism

Human

Description

This gene is specifically expressed in the thymus, and encodes a protein that is localized to the mitochondrion. The expression of this gene is inducible by p53, and it is thought to play an important role in mediating p53-dependent apoptosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]
