- Background
- Protein NDRG1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NDRG1 gene. It is a member of the N-myc downregulated gene family which belong to the alpha/beta hydrolase superfamily. The NDRG1 gene is mapped to chromosome 8q24. It has got a deduced 394 amino acid protein with a molecular mass of 43kD. NDRG1 is expressed in the cytoplasm and basolateral membranes of gut lumen surface epithelial cells. The protein appears to play a vital role in growth arrest and cell differentiation.

- Tissue Specificity
- Ubiquitous; expressed most prominently in placental membranes and prostate, kidney, small intestine, and ovary tissues. Also expressed in heart, brain, skeletal muscle, lung, liver and pancreas. Low levels in peripheral blood leukocytes and in tissues of the immune system. Expressed mainly in epithelial cells. Also found in Schwann cells of peripheral neurons. Reduced expression in adenocarcinomas compared to normal tissues. In colon, prostate and placental membranes, the cells that border the lumen show the highest expression.

- Function
- Stress-responsive protein involved in hormone responses, cell growth, and differentiation. Acts as a tumor suppressor in many cell types. Necessary but not sufficient for p53/TP53-mediated caspase activation and apoptosis. Has a role in cell trafficking, notably of the Schwann cell, and is necessary for the maintenance and development of the peripheral nerve myelin sheath. Required for vesicular recycling of CDH1 and TF. May also function in lipid trafficking. Protects cells from spindle disruption damage. Functions in p53/TP53-dependent mitotic spindle checkpoint. Regulates microtubule dynamics and maintains euploidy.
