The LINE-1 ORF1p also called L1 ORF1p is a protein encoded by the open reading frame 1 (ORF1) of the long interspersed nuclear element-1 (LINE-1 or L1) family. These proteins typically have a mass of around 40 kDa. They are predominantly expressed in the germ line and embryonic tissues but can also be found in various somatic tissues under abnormal conditions. L1 ORF1p plays a critical role in the retrotransposition process by forming ribonucleoprotein complexes that assist LINE-1 RNA in entering the nucleus and integrating into the genome.
L1 ORF1p facilitates the mobilization of LINE-1 elements within the genome impacting genome stability and variability. This protein forms a trimeric complex that binds LINE-1 RNA protecting it from degradation. By promoting the retrotransposition of LINE-1 elements L1 ORF1p influences genomic dynamics potentially contributing to genetic diversity but also potentially causing insertions that may lead to genomic instability and associated pathologies.
The activity of L1 ORF1p intersects with genome defense mechanisms and cellular stress response pathways. Important pathways include the single-stranded DNA break repair system and retrotransposon silencing mechanisms where proteins like TREX1 and MOV10 play related roles. These pathways help control the activity of transposable elements and maintain genomic integrity providing a first line of defense against potential disruptions caused by retrotransposition events.
Aberrant expression or dysregulation of L1 ORF1p has been linked to cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. Elevated levels of L1 ORF1p have been observed in some cancers such as lung and breast cancer where it may contribute to genomic instability. Furthermore Alzheimer's disease has shown L1 activity potentially involving interaction with amyloid precursor protein (APP) and contributing to disease pathology. Understanding these associations highlights the relevance of L1 ORF1p as a potential target for therapeutic intervention in these diseases.

Immunofluorescent analysis of 4% Paraformaldehyde-fixed, 0.1% TritonX-100 permeabilized NCCIT (human pluripotent embryonic carcinoma epithelial cell) cells labelling LINE-1 ORF1p with ab315135 at 1/50 (10.0 ug/ml) dilution. Confocal image showing cytoplasmic with punctate foci and nucleolar staining in NCCIT cell line. Low expression: HCT 116 (PMID: 27016617). Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8). Alexa Fluor® 594 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker ab195889 Anti-alpha Tubulin mouse monoclonal antibody - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594) was used to counterstain tubulin at 1/200 (2.5ug/ml) dilution (Red). The Nuclear counterstain was DAPI (Blue).
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded Human lung tissue labeling LINE-1 ORF1p with ab315135 at 1/100 (5.0 ug/ml. )Negative control: no staining on human normal lung tissues. The section was incubated with ab315135 at 4°C overnight (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). The section was then mounted using Fluoromount®.
