Protein Length | Full Length of Mature Protein |
Mol. Weight | 24.4kDa |
Research Area | Cell Biology |
Form | Liquid or Lyophilized powder |
Buffer | Liquid form: default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. Lyophilized powder form: the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0. |
Reconstitution | Briefly centrifuged the vial prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. It is recommended to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. The default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. |
Storage | 1. Store at -20°C/-80°C upon receipt, aliquoting is necessary for mutiple use. 2. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. 3. Store working aliquots at 4°C for up to one week. 4. In general, protein in liquid form is stable for up to 6 months at -20°C/-80°C. Protein in lyophilized powder form is stable for up to 12 months at -20°C/-80°C. |
Notes | Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4°C for up to one week. |
Target Details
Target Function | Plays a role in apoptosis, negatively regulating the intrinsinc apoptotic signaling pathway and TNFSF10-induced apoptosis. However, it has also been shown to have a pro-apoptotic activity. Has an antiviral activity towards hepatitis C virus/HCV by inhibiting the EGFR signaling pathway, which activation is required for entry of the virus into cells. |
Subcellular Location | Mitochondrion inner membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. |
Protein Families | IFI6/IFI27 family |

Gene Functions References
- Consequent to its localisation on inner-mitochondrial membrane, mtROS were higher in G1P3-expressing cells (MCF-7G1P3). This study identified that G1P3-induced mtROS have a direct role in migratory structure formation and nuclear gene expression to promote breast cancer cell metastasis. PMID: 29899394
- Data suggest that p7 is a critical immune evasion protein that suppresses the antiviral interferon function by counteracting the function of IFI6-16. PMID: 28159892
- In insulitic islets from living patients with recent-onset T1D, most of the overexpressed ISGs, including GBP1, TLR3, OAS1, EIF2AK2, HLA-E, IFI6, and STAT1, showed higher expression in the islet core compared with the peri-islet area containing the surrounding immune cells PMID: 27422384
- In conclusion, over-expression of IFI6 promotes hepatitis C virus RNA replication and rescues the interferon alpha-mediated anti-hepatitis C virus activity. PMID: 26105982
- IFI6 inhibits HCV entry by impairing EGFR mediated CD81/CLDN1 interactions. This may be relevant to other virus entry processes employing EGFR. PMID: 25757571
- Here we elucidate G1P3, a survival protein induced by interferons (IFNs), as a target of estrogen signaling and a contributor to poor outcomes in estrogen receptor-positive (ER(+)) breast cancer. PMID: 21996729
- PRINS regulates G1P3, a gene with anti-apoptotic effects in keratinocytes. siRNA-mediated inhibition of PRINS gene resulted in altered cell morphology and gene expression alterations. PMID: 20377629
- G1P3 protein may have function as a cell survival protein by inhibiting mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis PMID: 15685448
- Respiratory syncytial virus upregulated the mRNA expression of chemokines CC and CXC and interfered with type alpha/beta interferon-inducible gene expression by upregulation of MG11 and downregulation of G1P3. PMID: 18838000
- IFN-alpha2b induced the expression of G1P3 and antagonized the TRAIL induced apoptosis in myeloma suggesting that either the deregulated or the induced expression of G1P3 could lead to apoptosis resistance in tumor cells. PMID: 17823654
