PP32R1 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Target Background

Phosphoprotein 32 (PP32) is a tumor suppressor that can inhibit several types of cancers, including prostate and breast cancers. The protein encoded by this gene is one of at least two proteins that are similar in amino acid sequence to PP32 and are part of the same acidic nuclear phosphoprotein gene family. However, unlike PP32, the encoded protein is tumorigenic. The tumor suppressor function of PP32 has been localized to a 25 amino acid region that is divergent between PP32 and the protein encoded by this gene. This gene does not contain introns. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],caution:The His-140 polymorphism is uncertain. It has been found in prostatic cell line without corresponding normal tissue sample. Cells transfected with this variant expressed at least twice as much proteins than native cells.,similarity:Belongs to the ANP32 family.,similarity:Contains 4 LRR (leucine-rich) repeats.,tissue specificity:Expressed in activated stem cells, such as mobilized CD34+ cells and cord blood CD34+ cells, but not in resting bone marrow CD34+ cells. Expressed in a variety of neoplastic cell lines, mainly in prostatic adenocarcinoma cell lines. Not expressed in normal protastic tissue.,
