General description
PDIA3 (protein disulfide isomerase family A, member 3) is a multi-functional protein, which belongs to the protein-disulfide isomerase family. It is thought to be a membrane receptor for 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1α,25(OH)2D3), and is localized to endoplasmic reticulum, nucleus, plasma membrane and extracellular matrix.
Immunogen
Protein disulfide-isomerase A3 precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)
Application
Anti-PDIA3 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
PDIA3 (protein disulfide isomerase family A, member 3) is believed to be a membrane receptor for 1,25(OH)2D3 that stimulates rapid membrane responses through the vitamin D receptor. In the presence of Pdia3, 1,25(OH)2D3 stimulates prostaglandin E2, protein kinase C and other membrane signaling pathways during osteoblast maturation. It stimulates cellular response to chemotherapy-induced DNA damage. The protein functions as a disulfide isomerase protein that associates with lectin chaperones calreticulin and calnexin to mediate folding of glycoproteins. It is found to be secreted in the early stages of renal fibrosis.
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 APREST86567.
Physical form
Solution in phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.2, containing 40% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide
