DESCRIPTION

TXNDC1 is a thioredoxin (TXN; see 187700)-related protein with disulfide reductase activity (Matsuo et al., 2001).

CLONING

Using gene trap screening of cDNA from a TGF-beta (TGFB; 190180)-treated human lung adenocarcinoma cell line, followed by 5-prime RACE, Akiyama et al. (2000) isolated a partial TXNDC1 cDNA. Using this fragment for further screening of the cDNA library, Matsuo et al. (2001) isolated full-length TXNDC1. The deduced 280-amino acid protein has a predicted molecular mass of 31.8 kD and contains an N-terminal signal sequence, a TRX-like domain with an active site sequence CPAC, and a transmembrane domain. Northern blot analysis detected a 2.5-kb transcript in all tissues examined, with highest expression in kidney, liver, placenta, and lung. Confocal microscopy of intact HEK293 cells expressing TXNDC1 and Western analysis of subcellular fractions localized TXNDC1 primarily in the microsomal fraction in an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-like staining pattern characterized by a diffuse network-like labeling of the cytoplasm and nuclear rim.

GENE FUNCTION

Using recombinant TXNDC1 catalytic domain expressed in E. coli, Matsuo et al. (2001) showed that TXNDC1 had dose-dependent insulin (INS; 176730) disulfide reducing activity. Using doxycycline-regulated TXNDC1 expression in HEK293 cells treated with reagents known to induce ER stress, namely, thapsigargin, calcium ionophore A23187, or brefeldin A (BFA), Matsuo et al. (2001) showed that TXNDC1 expression suppressed BFA-induced apoptosis. Mutation of the two TXNDC1 active site cysteine residues abolished both disulfide-reducing activity and suppression of BFA-induced apoptosis.

MAPPING

The International Radiation Hybrid Mapping Consortium mapped the TXNDC1 gene to chromosome 14 (TMAP RH94716). ... More on the omim web site
