GenAge entry for PRDX1 (Homo sapiens)

Gene name (HAGRID: 141)

HGNC symbol
PRDX1 
Aliases
NKEFA; PAGA 
Common name
peroxiredoxin 1 

Potential relevance to the human ageing process

Main reason for selection
Entry selected based on evidence linking the gene product to a pathway or mechanism linked to ageing
Description

PRDX1 is involved in redox regulation and possibly in intracellular signalling cascades. Mice lacking PRDX1 have a shorter longevity due to anaemia and cancer, though it is unclear whether these animals age faster [50]. PRDX1 has not been directly associated with human ageing.
