Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
Phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate-induced protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the "PMAIP1" gene, and is also known as Noxa.
Noxa (Latin for "damage") is a pro-apoptotic member of the Bcl-2 protein family. Bcl-2 family members can form hetero- or homodimers, and they act as anti- or pro-apoptotic regulators that are involved in a wide variety of cellular activities. The expression of Noxa is regulated by the tumor suppressor p53, and Noxa has been shown to be involved in p53-mediated apoptosis.
