PLEKHA8 Antibody (C-term) [AMM07244G]

PLEKHA8 Antibody (C-term) [AMM07244G] | Gentaur UK, US & Europe Distribution

Product Category: Polyclonal Antibodies

Host: Rabbit

Species Reactivity: H

Specificity: This PLEKHA8 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 456-482 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human PLEKHA8.

Cellular Localisation: Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network membrane. Membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Note=Binds through its PH domain to PtdIns (4) P and ARF1, and subsequently localizes to TGN exit sites

Molecular Weight: 58261

Clone: Polyclonal

Gene Name: PLEKHA8

Gene ID: 84725

Function: Cargo transport protein that is required for apical transport from the Golgi complex. Transports AQP2 from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to sites of AQP2 phosphorylation. Mediates the non-vesicular transport of glucosylceramide (GlcCer) from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to the plasma membrane and plays a pivotal role in the synthesis of complex glycosphingolipids. Binding of both phosphatidylinositol 4- phosphate (PIP) and ARF1 are essential for the GlcCer transfer ability. Also required for primary cilium formation, possibly by being involved in the transport of raft lipids to the apical membrane, and for membrane tubulation.

Summary: Tissue Location: Expressed in kidney cell lines.

Form: Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification.

Storage: Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

Application: WB

Dilution: WB--1:1000
