Description: REDD-1 is a novel transcriptional target of p53 induced following DNA damage. During embryogenesis, REDD-1 expression mirrors the tissue-specific pattern of the p53 family member p63, and TP63 null embryos show virtually no expression of REDD-1, which is restored in mouse embryo fibroblasts following p63 expression. In differentiating primary keratinocytes, TP63 and REDD-1 expression are coordinately downregulated, and ectopic expression of either gene inhibits in vitro differentiation. REDD1 appears to function in the regulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS); TP63 null fibroblasts have decreased ROS levels and reduced sensitivity to oxidative stress, which are both increased following ectopic expression of either TP63 or REDD-1. Thus, REDD-1 encodes a shared transcriptional target that implicates ROS in the p53-dependent DNA damage response and in p63-mediated regulation of epithelial differentiation.
Immunogen: A portion of amino acids 20-49 from the human protein was used as the immunogen for the REDD-1 antibody.
Storage: Aliquot the REDD-1 antibody and store frozen at -20 °C or colder. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
