Rabbit Anti-HGS /FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
HGS is a regulates endosomal sorting and plays a critical role in the recycling and degradation of membrane receptors. The encoded protein sorts monoubiquitinated membrane proteins into the multivesicular body, targeting these proteins for lysosome-dependent degradation. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010].
Function:
Involved in intracellular signal transduction mediated by cytokines and growth factors. When associated with STAM, it suppresses DNA signaling upon stimulation by IL-2 and GM-CSF. Could be a direct effector of PI3-kinase in vesicular pathway via early endosomes and may regulate trafficking to early and late endosomes by recruiting clathrin. May concentrate ubiquitinated receptors within clathrin-coated regions. Involved in down-regulation of receptor tyrosine kinase via multivesicular body (MVBs) when complexed with STAM (ESCRT-0 complex). The ESCRT-0 complex binds ubiquitin and acts as sorting machinery that recognizes ubiquitinated receptors and transfers them to further sequential lysosomal sorting/trafficking processes. May contribute to the efficient recruitment of SMADs to the activin receptor complex. Involved in receptor recycling via its association with the CART complex, a multiprotein complex required for efficient transferrin receptor recycling but not for EGFR degradation.
Subunit:
Interacts with TRAK1. Interacts with TRAK2 (By similarity). Interacts with TRAK1. Component of the ESCRT-0 complex composed of STAM or STAM2 and HGS. Part of a complex at least composed of HSG, STAM2 (or probably STAM) and EPS15. Interacts with STAM. Interacts with STAM2. Interacts with EPS15; the interaction is direct, calcium-dependent and inhibited by SNAP25. Interacts with NF2; the interaction is direct. Interacts with ubiquitin; the interaction is direct. Interacts with VPS37C. Interacts with SMAD1, SMAD2 and SMAD3. Interacts with TSG101; the interaction mediates the association with the ESCRT-I complex. Interacts with SNAP25; the interaction is direct and decreases with addition of increasing concentrations of free calcium. Interacts with SNX1; the interaction is direct. Component of a 550 kDa membrane complex at least composed of HGS and SNX1 but excluding EGFR. Component of the CART complex, at least composed of ACTN4, HGS/HRS, MYO5B and TRIM3.
Subcellular Location:
Cytoplasm. Early endosome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Endosome, multivesicular body membrane; Peripheral membrane protein.
Tissue Specificity:
