Expression Region:

1-498aa

Subcellular Location:

Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, Cytoplasm, Cell membrane, Mitochondrion, Cell junction, desmosome

Tissue Specificity:

Expressed at high levels in normal urothelial and breast epithelial cells. Also expressed in the smooth muscle and endothelial cells. Reduced expression seen in advanced bladder and breast carcinomas (at protein level). Ubiquitous. Expressed at highest levels in the heart, skeletal muscle, kidney, liver and testis.

Protein Length:

Full Length

Pathway:

Mol. Weight:

77.1 kDa

Purity:

Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Form:

Liquid or Lyophilized powder

Buffer:

If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0.

Research Areas:

Cancer

Function:

Tumor suppressor which has the ability to inhibit cell growth and be pro-apoptotic during cell stress. Inhibits cell growth in bladder and prostate cancer cells by a down-regulation of HSPB1 by inhibiting its phosphorylation. May act as a 'capping' or 'branching' protein for keratin filaments in the cell periphery. May regulate K8/K18 filament and desmosome organization mainly at the apical or peripheral regions of simple epithelial cells

Reconstitution:

We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20℃/-80℃. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.
