Gene names: NIT1
Protein names and data: NIT1_HUMAN , Nitrilase homolog 1; 3.5.-.- Lenght: 327 a.a.
Mass: 35896 Da
fasta formatted sequence

Function: Plays a role in cell growth and apoptosis: loss of expression promotes cell growth and resistance to DNA damage stress. Has tumor suppressor properties that enhances the apoptotic responsiveness in cancer cells; this effect is additive to the tumor suppressor activity of FHIT. It is also a negative regulator of primary T-cells. Has apparently no omega-amidase activity such as NIT2 (By similarity).
Cellular location: Cytoplasm. Mitochondrion (By similarity).
Tissue specificity: Detected in heart, brain, placenta, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas.
