Rabbit Anti-EFHD2/FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
EFHD2 is a 48 amino acid protein that regulates spontaneous apoptosis through the regulation of Bcl-xS abundance. Localized to membrane raft, Swiprosin-1 is expressed in lymphocytes and contains two EF-hand domains. The gene encoding Swiprosin-1 maps to human chromosome 1, which spans 260 million base pairs, contains over 3,000 genes and comprises nearly 8% of the human genome. Chromosome 1 houses a large number of disease-associated genes, including those that are involved in familial adenomatous polyposis, Stickler syndrome, Parkinson’s disease, Gaucher disease, schizophrenia and Usher syndrome. Aberrations in chromosome 1 are found in a variety of cancers, including head and neck cancer, malignant melanoma and multiple myeloma.
Function:
May regulate B-cell receptor (BCR)-induced immature and primary B-cell apoptosis (By similarity). Plays a role as negative regulator of the canonical NF-kappa-B-activating branch (By similarity). Controls spontaneous apoptosis through the regulation of BCL2L1 abundance.
Subcellular Location:
Membrane raft. In immature B-cell line WEHI231.
Tissue Specificity:
Found in lymphocytes; preferentially expressed in CD8+ cells.
Similarity:
Contains 2 EF-hand domains.
