Also known as KCP1, KRTCAP1, PIGPC1, THW, dJ496H19.1, PERP, TP53 apoptosis effector, p53 apoptosis effector related to PMP22, EKVP7
p53 apoptosis effector related to PMP-22 is a plasma membrane protein that, in humans, is encoded by the PERP gene.
Involved in activation of cysteine-type endopeptidase activity. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in cell-cell junction. Implicated in erythrokeratodermia variabilis and mutilating palmoplantar keratoderma with periorificial keratotic plaques. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

p53 apoptosis effector related to PMP-22 is a plasma membrane protein that, in humans, is encoded by the PERP gene.
PERP is a direct transcriptional target of p53, but its transcription can also be regulated by other transcription factors.
