Anti-NEMP1 antibody produced in rabbit，100UL，HPA014394-100UL，Sigma

General description

The gene TMEM194A (transmembrane protein 194A), also referred to as NEMP1 (nuclear envelope integral membrane protein 1), is an inner nuclear membrane protein 1. The encoded protein has two regions A and B with evolutionarily conserved sequences in the transmembrane domains (TMs) and the C-terminal region. It is found to be expressed in the Xenopus anterior neuroectoderm at the neurula stage.

Immunogen

nuclear envelope integral membrane protein 1

Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies^® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The gene TMEM194A (transmembrane protein 194A) was first identified to participate in the eye development of Xenopus. The protein is found to interact with itself via the TMs and with lamin via region A. The localization of this protein to the inner nuclear membrane is mediated by its interaction with lamin. The region B of this protein is found to associate with the small GTPase Ran. TMEM194A may also be involved in the accumulation of RanGTP at the nuclear periphery. Knock-down of both tmem194A and ran is found to cause a decrease in cell densities and severe eye defects in Xenopus. TMEM194A is co-expressed with baf (barrier-to-autointegration factor) in the eye anlagen, and together they regulate the expression of eye marker genes.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies^® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies^® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:

• IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
• Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Physical form

Solution in phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.2, containing 40% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide

Other Notes
