ANTI-LMAN1 (C15-1445-569)

General description

Lectin mannose-binding 1 (LMAN1) is a mannose-specific, calcium-dependent lectin-like transport receptor protein.

Immunogen

ERGIC-53 protein precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-LMAN1 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions

LMAN1 mediates intracellular transport of bidirectional glycoproteins from the endoplasmic reticulum to Golgi body. It interacts with cathepsin-Z-related proteins for the intracellular trafficking of the lysosomal enzyme cathepsin C and for efficient secretion of coagulation factors V and VIII. The efficiency of the gene in terms of expression level as well as recycling pathway is modulated by heat shock during cell stress. Heat shock enhances the translation of the LMAN1 mRNA followed by accumulation of LMAN1. Mutated LMAN1 leads to an autosomal recessive bleeding disorder i.e. combined deficiency of factor V and factor VIII (F5F8D). It has also been reported that abnormalities of LMAN1 potentially contribute to microsatellite instability (MSI)-H carcinogenesis.

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.

Linkage

Corresponding Antigen APREST86408.

Physical form

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