mouse monoclonal IgG2b; HGTD-P (human growth and transformation-dependent protein), also known as E2IG5 or FAM162A, is a 154 amino acid single-pass membrane protein belonging to the UPF0389 family. Considered a proapoptotic protein, HGTD-P is an effector of cell death induced by hypoxia-ischemia (HI) and is therefore considered a potential target in treating HI-induced brain damage. HGTD-P localizes to the mitochondria and, when overexpressed, induces the mitochondrial permeability transition by interacting with voltage dependent anion channels. HGTD-P facilitates apoptotic cell death via the mitochondrial apoptotic cascades, including permeability transition, cytochrome c release and caspase 9 activation. HGTD-P is regulated and activated by HIF-1α through a hypoxia-responsive element on the HGTD-P promoter region.
