Anti-PDRG1 Antibody

PDRG1 codes for a novel protein called p53 and DNA damage-regulated protein 1. Human PDRG1 is predominantly expressed in normal testis and its expression can be induced by UV irradiation and be repressed by p53 [PMID14562055]. Recently, PDRG1 was identified as a novel tumor marker for multiple malignancies that is selectively regulated by genotoxic stress. Its expression was upregulated in multiple malignancies including cancers of the colon, rectum, ovary, lung, stomach, breast and uterus when compared to normal tissues [PMID: 21193842], suggesting its being a novel tumor marker that could play a role in cancer development and/or progression.
