Rabbit Anti-PDZK3/FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
Proteins containing PDZ domains have been shown frequently to bind the SLCtermini of transmembrane receptors or ion channels. They have also been shown to bind to other PDZ domain proteins and could possibly be involved in intracellular signalling. PDZK3 contains six PDZ domains and shares sequence similarity with pro-interleukin-16 (pro-IL-16). Like pro-IL-16, the encoded protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and is thought to be cleaved by a caspase to produce a secreted peptide containing two PDZ domains. In addition, the PDZK3 gene is upregulated in primary prostate tumors and may be involved in the early stages of prostate tumorigenesis.
Subunit:
Interacts with SCN10A, CTNND2 and PKP4 (By similarity).
Subcellular Location:
Cytoplasmic, Endoplasmic reticulum, Nuclear and Secreted
Tissue Specificity:
Isoform 2 is expressed (at protein level) in prostate and many prostate tumors.
Post-translational modifications:
A secreted form is produced by caspase-mediated proteolytic cleavage (By similarity).
Similarity:
Contains 6 PDZ (DHR) domains.
