About EI24

Cytogenetic location: 11q24.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 11:125,569,477-125,584,684 (from NCBI)

This gene has 14 transcripts (splice variants) and 222 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in liver (RPKM 39.6), colon (RPKM 30.4) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a putative tumor suppressor and has higher expression in p53-expressing cells than in control cells and is an immediate-early induction target of p53-mediated Apoptosis. The encoded protein may suppress cell growth by inducing apoptotic cell death through the Caspase 9 and mitochondrial pathways. This gene is located on human chromosome 11q24, a region frequently altered in cancers. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Pseudogenes of this gene have been defined on chromosomes 1, 3, 7, and 8. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014]
