diablo IAP-binding mitochondrial protein

Alias

DFNA64 | SMAC

This gene encodes an inhibitor of apoptosis protein (IAP)-binding protein. The encoded mitochondrial protein enters the cytosol when cells undergo apoptosis, and allows activation of caspases by binding to inhibitor of apoptosis proteins. Overexpression of the encoded protein sensitizes tumor cells to apoptosis. A mutation in this gene is associated with young-adult onset of nonsyndromic deafness-64. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013].

Recapitulate disease phenotypes

Endogenous knock-in cell lines enable a clear understanding of a gene or mutation’s contribution to a phenotype including conditional knockouts to model human disease

Confirm your results

We provide truly isogenic cell line pairs. Each cell model comes with the parental cell line as an additional control

Knockout and knock-in models

Our knock in models have more complex genetic modifications such as:

  • insertions
  • base pair changes
  • deletions
  • truncations
  • FLAG-tagged proteins for purification

Proven models

Our catalog of cell lines has become a gold-standard resourceciteab-award-cell-line-supplier-to-watch-in-cancer-research in antibody validation, cancer research, and early drug-discovery research. Horizon was recently recognized by CiteAb as the Cell Line Supplier to Watch in Cancer Research for 2024. Read more about the CiteAb award.
