Programmed cell death 4 (Pdcd4) is a novel tumor suppressor that inhibits translation,progression and invasion. It was first identified as being differnetially upregulated during apoptosis. Pdcd4 interferes with the activity of the eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF) 4A by displacing the scaffold protein eIF4G from its binding to the RNA helicase eIF4A.
A synthesized peptide derived from human PDCD5, corresponding to a region within C-terminal amino acids.
This gene encodes a protein that is upregulated during apoptosis where it translocates rapidly from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. The encoded protein may be an important regulator of K(lysine) acetyltransferase 5 (a protein involved in transcription, DNA damage response and cell cycle control) by inhibiting its proteasome-dependent degradation. Pseudogenes have been identified on chromosomes 5 and 12
