About API5

Cytogenetic location: 11p12 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 11:43,311,996-43,344,529 (from NCBI)

This gene has 11 transcripts (splice variants) and 213 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in thyroid (RPKM 18.0), lymph node (RPKM 15.7) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes an Apoptosis inhibitory protein whose expression prevents Apoptosis after growth factor deprivation. This protein suppresses the transcription factor E2F1-induced Apoptosis and also interacts with, and negatively regulates Acinus, a nuclear factor involved in apoptotic DNA fragmentation. Its depletion enhances the cytotoxic action of the chemotherapeutic drugs. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
