Background
This gene is a member of a group of genes whose transcript levels are increased following stressful growth arrest conditions and treatment with DNA-damaging agents. The protein encoded by this gene responds to environmental stresses by mediating activation of the p38/JNK pathway via MTK1/MEKK4 kinase. The DNA damage-induced transcription of this gene is mediated by both p53-dependent and -independent mechanisms. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010],
Function
disease:Induction of GADD45 in ataxia telangiectasia cells is abnormal.,function:Binds to proliferating cell nuclear antigen. Might affect PCNA interaction with some CDK (cell division protein kinase) complexes; stimulates DNA excision repair in vitro and inhibits entry of cells into S phase.,induction:By UV radiation, X-rays, growth arrest and alkylating agents. The induction is mediate by some kinase(s) other than PKC.,similarity:Belongs to the GADD45 family.,subunit:Interacts with GADD45GIP1.,
