PUMA Antibody – Rabbit Polyclonal

For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures. Catalog #: MBS243445

Apoptosis is related to many diseases and development. The p53 tumor-suppressor protein induces apoptosis through transcriptional activation of several genes. A novel p53 inducible pro-apoptotic gene was identified recently and designated PUMA (for p53… More details

NCBI Summary for PUMA

This gene encodes a member of the BCL-2 family of proteins. This family member belongs to the BH3-only pro-apoptotic subclass. The protein cooperates with direct activator proteins to induce mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization and apoptosis. It can bind to anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family members to induce mitochondrial dysfunction and caspase activation. Because of its pro-apoptotic role, this gene is a potential drug target for cancer therapy and for tissue injury. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

UniProt Comments for PUMA

PUMA: Essential mediator of p53/TP53-dependent and p53/TP53- independent apoptosis. Interacts with MCL1 and BCL2A1. Interacts with BCL2 and BCL2L1/BCL-XL. By DNA damage, glucocorticoid treatment, growth factor deprivation and p53/TP53. Ubiquitously expressed. Belongs to the Bcl-2 family. 4 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Protein type: Mitochondrial

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 19q13.3-q13.4

Cellular Component: mitochondrial outer membrane; mitochondrion; cytosol

Molecular Function: protein binding

Biological Process: caspase activation; release of cytochrome c from mitochondria; positive regulation of protein homooligomerization; apoptosis; reduction of endoplasmic reticulum calcium ion concentration; positive regulation of neuron apoptosis; release of sequestered calcium ion into cytosol; determination of adult life span; response to DNA damage stimulus; negative regulation of growth
