Anti-PERP Antibody

P53 apoptosis effector related to PMP-22 (PERP), also known as Keratinocyte-associated protein 1 (KCP-1, Krtcap1), is a member of the TMEM47 family and a component of the intercellular desmosome junctions. PERP has been shown to play an important role in the stratified epithelial integrity and cell-cell adhesion by promoting desmosome assembly. Recent evidence implies that PERP is a mediator of p53 induced apoptosis. P53 binds to the promoter of PERP and activates the PERP gene and consequently the translated PERP protein mediates the p53 induced apoptosis. PERP is expressed in apoptotic cells and in the stratified squamous skin epithelium of the skin and the tongue, but not in simple epithelia.
