Validated All-in-One™ qPCR Primer for KEAP1(NM_012289.3) Search again
By default, qPCR primer pairs are designed to measure the expression level of the splice variant (accession number) you selected for this gene WITHOUT consideration of other possible variants of this gene. If this gene has multiple variants, and you would like to measure the expression levels of one particular variant, multiple variants, or all variants, please contact us for a custom service project at inquiry@genecopoeia.com.

Summary
This gene encodes a protein containing KELCH-1 like domains, as well as a BTB/POZ domain. Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 interacts with NF-E2-related factor 2 in a redox-sensitive manner and the dissociation of the proteins in the cytoplasm is followed by transportation of NF-E2-related factor 2 to the nucleus. This interaction results in the expression of the catalytic subunit of gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same isoform have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq].

- Importantly, our findings suggest that a paradox exists whereby Nrf2 activity is beneficial in non-malignant cells but in cancer cells it may provide a selective advantage for clonal expansion.
- endogenous Keap1 remains mostly in the cytoplasm, and electrophiles promote nuclear accumulation of Nrf2 without altering the subcellular localization of Keap1
- Nrf2 regulates INrf2 by controlling its transcription, and INrf2 controls Nrf2 by degrading it.
- C151 is the most important site of alkylation on Keap1 by chemoprevention agents that function by activating the antioxidant response element through Nrf2.
- in response to CSNO Keap1 accumulates in the nucleus with a time course similar to that of Nrf2.
- ProTalpha and Nrf2 compete for interaction with Keap1, therefore ProTalpha is able to liberate Nrf2 from complex with Keap1 and hence contribute to Nrf2-dependent transcription.
