Description
The protein encoded by TXNDC5 is a member of the protein disulfide isomerase family, which has disulfide isomerase activity and can act as the molecular chaperone to reduce the synthesis of abnormal proteins. Its biological functions include anti-oxidation, promoting angiogenesis, taking part in cellular inflammation, energy metabolism, etc. The expression of TXNDC5 is increased in many types of tumors including cervical carcinoma, gastric carcinoma and colorectal cancer. The thioredoxin domain-containing 5 (TXNDC5) gene is associated with susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and exhibits increased expression in the synovial tissues. TXNDC5 is also associated strongly with diabetes, a metabolic disease characterized by interrupted insulin signalling
