Normal role description: TRIAP1 is a protein involved in inhibition of apoptosis. TRIAP1 is activated in response to normal cellular conditions by p53. TRIAP1 will interact with APAF1 and HSP70 to inhibit activation of caspase-9 and promote cell survival. TRIAP1 over expression has been implicated in the development of multiple myeloma.
