About CIDEA

Cytogenetic location: 18p11.21 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 18:12,254,361-12,277,595 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 175 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Restricted expression toward fat (RPKM 78.2).

Summary

This gene encodes the homolog of the mouse protein Cidea that has been shown to activate Apoptosis. This activation of Apoptosis is inhibited by the DNA fragmentation factor DFF45 but not by Caspase inhibitors. Mice that lack functional Cidea have higher metabolic rates, higher lipolysis in brown adipose tissue and higher core body temperatures when subjected to cold. These mice are also resistant to diet-induced obesity and diabetes. This suggests that in mice this gene product plays a role in thermogenesis and lipolysis. Alternatively spliced transcripts have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2010]
