PRAP1
gene geneOn this page
Also known as UPA
Summary
PRAP1 (proline rich acidic protein 1, HGNC:23304) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 10q26.3, encoding Proline-rich acidic protein 1 (Q96NZ9). Lipid-binding protein which promotes lipid absorption by facilitating MTTP-mediated lipid transfer (mainly triglycerides and phospholipids) and MTTP-mediated apoB lipoprotein assembly and secretion.
Predicted to enable triglyceride binding activity. Involved in DNA damage response, signal transduction by p53 class mediator; deactivation of mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint; and negative regulation of apoptotic process. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum and extracellular region.

Function. Lipid-binding protein which promotes lipid absorption by facilitating MTTP-mediated lipid transfer (mainly triglycerides and phospholipids) and MTTP-mediated apoB lipoprotein assembly and secretion. Protects the gastrointestinal epithelium from irradiation-induced apoptosis. May play an important role in maintaining normal growth homeostasis in epithelial cells. Involved in p53/TP53-dependent cell survival after DNA damage. May down-regulate the expression of MAD1L1 and exert a suppressive role in mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint in hepatocellular carcinomas.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with isoform 1 and isoform 3 of MAD1L1. Interacts with MTTP.
Subcellular location. Secreted. Endoplasmic reticulum.
Tissue specificity. Highly expressed in the intestinal epithelial cells (at protein level). Abundantly expressed in the epithelial cells of the liver, kidney and cervix. Significantly down-regulated in hepatocellular carcinoma and right colon adenocarcinoma compared with the respective adjacent normal tissues. Expressed in epididymis (at protein level).
Induction. Up-regulated by butyrate, trichostatin A and 5’-aza-2’ deoxycytidine. Induced by DNA-damaging agents in a p53/TP53-dependent manner in HepG2 liver cancer cell line and HCT116 colon cancer cell line.
