Livin is a member of IAP family characterized by the presence of an N-terminal, conserved, single BIR domain and a C-terminal RING-type zinc finger domain.
It plays a vital role in caspase regulation, anti-apoptosis and tumorigenesis.
Livin interacts with diverse pro-apoptotic factors and inhibits apoptosis triggered by various death stimuli in a caspase-dependent and caspase-independent methods.
BIR domain of Livin binds to caspase-9, inhibits its proteolysis and induces a caspase-dependent anti-apoptotic cascade.
Alternatively, Livin has also been found to activate MAP kinase and inhibit apoptosis via TAK1/JNK1 signaling cascade.
Northern Blot analysis detected an elevated expression in developmental tissues and human melanomas, suggesting a potential cancer target.
