CIDEA rabbit pAb

• Background:

  Cell death-inducing DFFA-like effector a (CIDEA) Homo sapiens 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]

  1149

• UniProt:

  O60543

• Cellular Locus:

  Lipid droplet. Nucleus. Enriched at lipid droplet contact sites. Has been shown to localize to mitochondria, where it could interact with UCP1 and hence inhibit UCP1 uncoupling activity (By similarity). These data could not be confirmed (PubMed:18509062)..
