PDCD5 (Programmed cell death 5) encodes a protein expressed in tumor cells during apoptosis independent of the apoptosis-inducing stimuli. Prior to apoptosis induction, this gene product is distributed in both the nucleus and cytoplasm. The conformation of PDCD5 protein is a stable helical core consisting of a triple-helix bundle and two dissociated terminal regions. This is an important novel protein that regulates both apoptotic and non-apoptotic programmed cell death. Recombinant PDCD5 was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques. Alternative Names: PDCD5 protein, PDCD -5, TFAR19 novel apoptosis-related., Programmed cell death 5 Programmed cell death protein 5 protein, TF-1 cell apoptosis-related protein 19 protein, TFAR19 protein, PDCD 5, PDCD 5 protein, PDCD5, Programmed cell death 5 protein, PDCD -5 protein
