Rabbit Recombinant Monoclonal Antibody

Supplier:  Invitrogen™ MA549360

Catalog No. FERMA549360

Description

Sequence Similarities: 98% Mouse/Rat. Tissue Specificity: Widely expressed, but very low expression, if any, in the brain (PubMed:12609765, PubMed:16609006). Expressed in the epidermis with higher levels in melanocytes compared with keratinocytes and Langerhans cells (at protein level) (PubMed:29336782). Expressed in peripheral blood, but not bone marrow mononuclear cells (PubMed:12609765). Expressed in tissue macrophages, including liver Kuppfer cells and lung alveolar macrophages, in podocytes and in some cells of the ciliary body of the eye (at protein level) (PubMed:16489096). May be overexpressed in various cancers, including melanoma and glioblastoma multiforme (PubMed:7814155, PubMed:16489096, PubMed:16609006). Positive Control: L929 cell lysate, A375 cell lysate, U-937 cell lysate, rat heart tissue lysate, B16F1 cell lysates, human lung tissue, L929. Subcellular Location: Cell membrane, Melanosome membrane, Early endosome membrane. Predicted band size: 64 kDa.

The protein encoded by this gene is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein which shows homology to the pMEL17 precursor, a melanocyte-specific protein. GPNMB shows expression in the lowly metastatic human melanoma cell lines and xenografts but does not show expression in the highly metastatic cell lines. GPNMB may be involved in growth delay and reduction of metastatic potential. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
