Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 1149
Gene name Cell death inducing DFFA like effector a
Gene symbol CIDEA
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CIDE-A
Chromosome 18
Chromosome location 18p11.21|18
Summary This gene encodes the homolog of the mouse protein Cidea that has been shown to activate apoptosis. This activation of apoptosis is inhibited by the DNA fragmentation factor DFF45 but not by caspase inhibitors. Mice that lack functional Cidea have higher

Protein name Lipid transferase CIDEA (Cell death activator CIDE-A) (Cell death-inducing DFFA-like effector A)
Protein function Lipid transferase that promotes unilocular lipid droplet formation by mediating lipid droplet fusion (PubMed:19843876, PubMed:26118629). Lipid droplet fusion promotes their enlargement, restricting lipolysis and favoring lipid storage (PubMed:19
