    text
  • localized in both the cytoplasm and the nucleus and was accumulated in the nucleolus (Hao 2006)
  • located in the cytoplasm and in the mitochondrial intermembrane space (Zhang 2008)
  • basic FUNCTION
  • anti-apoptotic molecule that may undergo a cytoplasm-nucleus-nucleolus translocation (Hao 2006)
  • may be involved in cell differentiation, and it might exert universal and possibly important physiological functions under the regulation of Ras (Hao 2006)
  • essential conserved Fe/S cluster protein implicated in extramitochondrial Fe/S cluster assembly, similar to other components of the so-called CIA (cytoplasmic Fe/S cluster assembly) pathway although partially localized to the mitochondrial intermembrane space (Zhang 2008)
  • suppressor of gastric cancer cell proliferation and might play an important role in the development of gastric cancer (Zhang 2008)
  • played an important role in the differentiation of Colorectal cancer (CRC) cells, and the differential expression of CIAPIN1 in CRC was closely related to prognosis
  • CIAPIN1 and GLRX3 might play cooperatively essential roles in embryogenesis as iron-sulfur cluster proteins
  • implicated in cytosolic iron-sulfur (Fe/S) protein biogenesis
  • is the first identified Fe/S protein imported into the mitochondrial intermembrane space (IMS), raising the possibility that it plays a role in cytosolic Fe/S cluster biogenesis also once trapped in the IMS
  • participate in the process of proliferation and tumorigenicity for several cancers
  • implicated in several processes, such as apoptosis, cell division, angiogenesis and Fe/S protein biogenesis
  • is an antiapoptotic molecule that confers factor-independent survival on hematopoietic cells
  • essential for both autonomous and extrinsic regulation of fetal liver hematopoiesis
  • is a potential tumor suppressor
  • involved in cell survival including dopaminergic neuronal cells

    protein
  • CIAPIN1 and CHCHD4 interact through an intermolecular disulfide-bonded intermediate and CIAPIN1 is imported into mitochondria
  • CIAPIN1 played an important role in the proliferation of liver cancer cells through increasing the expressions of cell cycle related proteins CCND1, CDK2, CDK4, and CCNE
  • Tat-CIAPIN1 protein has protective effects against hippocampal neuronal cell damage induced by ischemic injury, suggesting that Tat-CIAPIN1 protein may provide a potential therapeutic agent for ischemia
