False colour image of Western blot : Anti-PERP antibody [EPR7885] staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-Alpha Tubulin [DM1A] (ab7291) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red. In Western blot, ab129083 was shown to bind specifically to PERP. A band was observed at 17 kDa in wild-type A431 cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in PERP knockout cell line ab270475 (knockout cell lysate ab270498). To generate this image, wild-type and PERP knockout A431 cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216776) at 1/20000 dilution.

Supplementary information

PERP also known as P53 apoptosis effector related to PMP-22 is a protein with an approximate mass of 23 kDa. It mainly operates as an effector in the p53-dependent apoptosis pathway. PERP is known for facilitating cell-cell adhesion as a part of the desmosome complex. Researchers have found its expression primarily in epithelial tissues where it contributes to maintaining cell structure integrity. PERP's role is significant in tissues experiencing stress where it upregulates in response to p53 activation.
Biological function summary

PERP plays an active role in cellular processes like adhesion and apoptosis. As a part of the desmosome it helps in connecting epithelial cells. This function is important for preserving tissue architecture and responding to mechanical stress. PERP's involvement in apoptosis arises from its interactions in the p53 pathway supporting the process when cells require programmed death. These roles are essential for maintaining balanced cell proliferation and death key for tissue homeostasis.

Pathways

PERP is closely tied to the p53 pathway and the desmosomal adhesion process. The p53 pathway involves one of the primary tumor suppressor proteins and regulates the cell cycle while the desmosomal adhesion pathway maintains the structural cohesion between cells. PERP acts in concert with various proteins such as JUP (Plakoglobin) strengthening cellular adhesions and responding to apoptotic signals. This connectivity allows PERP to perform dual roles in maintaining cell stability and facilitating apoptosis when necessary.

PERP has associations with squamous cell carcinoma and epidermolysis bullosa. Disruption of PERP functions can lead to improper apoptosis contributing to cancer progression. In the case of epidermolysis bullosa alterations in desmosomal structure connected to PERP can weaken skin integrity leading to blistering. In these conditions proteins like JUP work alongside PERP highlighting the importance of balance between cell adhesion and controlled cell death in disease prevention.
