Also known as CDIPLITAFL
Summary
CDIP1 (cell death inducing p53 target 1, HGNC:13234) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 16p13.3, encoding Cell death-inducing p53-target protein 1 (Q9H305). Acts as an important p53/TP53-apoptotic effector.
Predicted to enable zinc ion binding activity. Acts upstream of or within intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in response to DNA damage by p53 class mediator. Located in bounding membrane of organelle; centrosome; and nucleoplasm.

Literature-anchored findings (GeneRIF, showing 6)
- These findings support a novel p53 –> CDIP –> TNF-alpha apoptotic pathway that directs apoptosis after exposure of cells to genotoxic stress. (PMID:17599062)
- CDIP expression correlates with sensitivity of cancer cells with TNFalpha, and CDIP seems to be a regulator of the p53-mediated death versus survival response of cells to TNFalpha. (PMID:22549949)
- Study conclude that LITAF is a monotopic membrane protein whose membrane integration is stabilised by a zinc finger. The related human protein, CDIP1 (cell death involved p53 target 1), displays identical membrane topology, suggesting that this mode of membrane integration is conserved in LITAF family proteins.

UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Acts as an important p53/TP53-apoptotic effector. Regulates TNF-mediated apoptosis in a p53/TP53-dependent manner.
Subcellular location. Late endosome membrane. Lysosome membrane.
Tissue specificity. Highly expressed in brain. Expressed at lower level in heart, skeletal muscle, kidney, pancreas and liver. Weakly or not expressed in placenta and lung.
Domain organisation. The LITAF domain is stabilized by a bound zinc ion. The LITAF domain contains an amphipathic helix that mediates interaction with lipid membranes.
Induction. Up-regulated by p53/TP53.
Miscellaneous. May be due to competing acceptor splice site.
Similarity. Belongs to the CDIP1/LITAF family.
