Description: Interleukin-22 (IL-22) is a cytokine important for the modulation of tissue responses during inflammation (1). Unlike the distantly related IL-10, IL-22 does not inhibit the production of proinflammatory cytokines in monocytes in response to LPS, but it has some inhibitory effects on IL-4 production from Th2 T cells. IL-22 is expressed by both the adaptive arm of the immune system such as CD4 T cell subsets including Th17 cells, as well as by innate lymphocytes such as NK and LTi-like cells (2). IL-22 is highly expressed in several chronic inflammatory conditions, and studies suggest that IL-22 plays both inflammatory and protective roles (3).

Description: IL-1RL2 is a member of the interleukin 1 receptor family, but it is incapable of binding to interleukin 1 alpha and interleukin 1 beta with high affinity (1). Together with IL-1RAcP, it can bind members of the IL-36 cytokine family, leading to activation of the NF-kappaB pathway (2). IL-1RL2 can also bind to IL-1F10, resulting in a decreased product of Th17 cytokines in response to immunological or LPS challenge, suggesting that one potential role of IL-1RL2 may be to modulate the immune and inflammation response (3).

Description: ILPIP (ILP-interacting protein) has recently been shown to interact with XIAP, a member of the IAP (Inhibitor of Apoptosis) protein family. Together, these two proteins synergistically activate the TAK1/JNK1 signal transduction pathway, which acts to protect against the interleukin-1b converting enzyme of Fas-induced apotosis. This protein was independently isolated and characterized as polyploidy-associated protein kinase (PAPK), a member of the Ste20/germinal center kinase family that modulates cytoskeletal organization and cell survival, suggesting that its protective role may be a function of its kinase activity. Although two mRNA sequences have been isolated, only the shorter isoform has been observed.

Description: The TSC22 domain family member 3 protein (TSC22D3) is a leucine zipper protein that functions as a transcriptional regulator. The expression of TSC22D3 is stimulated by glucocorticoids and IL-10 and is thought to play a key role in the anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects of these molecules. TSC22D3 can physically interact with and inhibit the activities of key inflammatory signaling mediators such NF-kB and AP-1. TSC22D3 functions as a transcriptional co-activator for various nuclear receptors and NF-kB. It has also been shown to be involved in the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells towards osteoblasts and bone formation.

Description: Tau tubulin kinase (TTBK2) is a serine/threonine kinase whose substrates are thought to include the tau and tubulin proteins. Mutations in the TTBK2 gene cause spinocerebellar ataxia type 11 (SCA11), a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive ataxia and atrophy of the cerebellum and brainstem. Recent studies have shown that increased levels of TTBK2 expression in kidney carcinoma and melanoma cell lines increases resistance to the chemotherapeutic agent Sunitinib, and that reduction of TTBK2 though the use of siRNA sensitized these cell lines to the effects of Sunitib, suggesting that TTBK2 can be used as a resistance marker as well a potential target to overcome resistance.

Description: Thyroid hormone receptors (TRs) are transcription factors that regulate the expression of specific genes in a hormone-dependent manner (1). TRIP12 (thyroid hormone receptor interactor 12) is an ATP-dependent E3 ubiquitin ligase involved in the human ubiquitin fusion degradation (UFD) pathway and also modulates the NEDD8 pathway (2,3). TRIP12 contains one WWE domain and a single HECT (E6AP-type E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase) domain suggested to contain a noncovalent ubiquitin-binding site (4). TRIP12 acts as a key regulator of DNA damage response and the ubiquitin ligase activity of TRIP12 is essential for mouse development (5).

Description: The Teashirt zinc finger homeobox (TSHZ) family comprise a family of evolutionarily conserved transcription factors that, in Drosophila, are active in specific body parts for patterning, but whose function in vertebrates is less clear. TSHZ1 has been found to be required for axial skeleton, soft palate and middle ear development in mice and may be involved in a common pathway with the Hox genes. Both TSHZ1 and the related protein TSHZ3 have been found to interact with FE65, an adapter protein that binds to the amyloid protein precursor (APP) in neurons. Together with SET, a component of the inhibitor of acetyl transferase, and histone deacetylases, these proteins formed a gene-silencing complex whose target includes caspase-4.

Description: Troponin I (cTnI) is 1 of 3 subunits, along with troponin C (TnC) and troponin T (TnT) of troponin complex found in cardiac muscle. cTnI binds to actin in thin myofilaments to hold the troponin-tropomyosin complex in place, and when cTnI is phosphorylated by protein kinase C and protein kinase A at Ser23/24 it causes regulation of Ca2+- stimulated ATPase. Evidence suggests that phosphorylation of both serines 23 and 24 is required for the reduction in Ca2+-sensitivity and beneficial for relaxation of the heart. Ser23/24 phosphorylation is important for enhanced relaxation in response to prolonged activation of protein kinase C by endothelin in intact myocytes, while Thr144 plays an important role in the acute acceleration of relaxation. Troponin I pS23/24 Antibody is ideal for researchers interested in cancer research.

Description: MANF, also known as ARMET, was initially identified as a protein containing an arginine-rich region that was highly mutated in a variety of tumors. More recently it was identified as a mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor with selectivity for dopaminergic neurons, similar to glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and CDNF. In rat brain slices, MANF enhanced nigral gamma-aminobutyric acid release. Like GDNF and CDNF, MANF has selective neuroprotective activity for dopaminergic neurons suggesting that it may be indicated for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. Expression of MANF has also been shown to be induced during ER stress, suggesting that it may play a role in protein quality control during ER stress.

Description: MeCP2 is a chromosomal protein with abundant binding sites in the chromatin. It belongs to the family of methyl CpG binding proteins which also comprises MBD1, MBD2, MBD3 and MBD4. MeCP2 can bind specifically to methylated promoters, thereby repressing transcription. This transcriptional repression is mediated through interaction with histone deacetylase and the corepressor SIN3A. MeCP2 also is essential for development. Mutations in MeCP2 are the cause of several types of mental retardation including Rett syndrome, a progressive neurological disorder that causes mental retardation in females and mental retardation syndromic X-linked type 13, and may also be involved in Angelman syndrome and susceptibility to some types of autism. Anti-MeCP2 Antibody is ideal for research in Epigenetics, Embryonic Development and Neuroscience.

Description: MeCP2 (Methyl-CpG Binding Protein 2) is a chromosomal protein that binds to methylated DNA. It can bind specifically to a single methyl-CpG pair and is not influenced by sequences flanking the methyl-CpGs. MeCP2 has been shown to mediate transcriptional repression through interaction with histone deacetylase and the corepressor SIN3A. Defects in MeCP2 are the cause of Rett syndrome (RTT). RTT is an X-linked dominant disease; it is a progressive neurologic developmental disorder and one of the most common causes of mental retardation in females. Recent studies have reported a new phosphorylation site at Ser421. Phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of this site may be involved in regulation of behavioral responses to chronic antidepressant treatment. MeCP2 pS421 Antibody is ideal for researchers interested in neuroscience research.

Description: MCG10 is a member of the KH-domain RNA-binding protein family. Proteins of this family also referred to as alpha-CPs, bind to RNA with specificity for C-rich pyrimidine regions. Alpha-CPs play important roles in post-transcriptional activities and have different cellular distributions. MCG10 is induced by p53 and DNA damage via two p53-responsive promoter elements. Its overexpression in transfected cells results in the suppression of cell proliferation by inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in G2-M. Decreased expression of one isoform of MCG10 has been observed in many forms of lung cancer, leading to speculation that MCG10 can act as a tumor suppressor. Multiple alternatively spliced isoforms of MCG10 have been identified.

Description: MARCH8 (c-MIR) is a novel E3 ubiquitin ligase designated as the modulator of immune recognition (MIR) family, whose catalytic domain is a variant RING domain (RING-CH domain). MARCH8 was found as a functional and structural homolog of KSHV MIR1 and MIR2. MARCH8 targets B7-2 to lysosomal degradation and down-regulates the B7-2 surface expression through ubiquitination of its cytoplasmic tail. Furthermore, MARCH8 has been shown to down-regulate the expression of transferrin receptor and Fas, an important molecule for the induction of apoptosis. MARCH8 is the first example of an E3 ubiquitin ligase that is capable of inhibiting MHC II expression. Recent findings suggest that MARCH8 may regulate immune responses by promoting ubiquitination of MHC-II and CD86, leading to their subsequent endocytosis and lysosomal degradation.

Description: Matrilins (MATNs) are a family of non-collagenous extra-cellular matrix (ECM) proteins consisting of four known members that have been proposed to play key roles in modulating cellular phenotypes during chondrogenesis of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). MATN1 and MATN3 are expressed specifically in cartilage and are among the most up-regulated ECM proteins during chondrogenesis. MATN3 is composed of a single N-terminal von Willebrand Factor A (vWFA) domain followed by four epidermal growth factor (EGF) repeats and a coiled-coil domain whereas MATN1 is composed of two vWFA domains separated by one EGF-like domain. MATN1 or MATN3 may play a role in modulating chondrogenesis during the chondrocyte differentiation process. Mutations of this gene have been associated with variety of inherited chondrodysplasias. Recent studies show that aberrant expression and processing of MATN3 are hallmarks of conventional cartilaginous neoplasms.

Description: Precerebellin is the precursor of the brain-specific hexadecapeptide cerebellin, a protein with substantial similarity to the globular region of the B chain of complement component C1q. Cerebellin exerts neuromodulatory functions by directly stimulating norepinephrine release via the adenylate cyclase/pka- dependent signaling pathway; and indirectly enhances adrenocortical secretion in vivo, through a paracrine mechanism involving medullary catecholamine release. The active form of precerebellin is highly enriched in postsynaptic structures of cerebellar Purkinje cells in cartwheel neurons of the dorsal cochlear nucleus. Because precerebellin belongs to the C1q/tumor necrosis factor superfamily of secreted proteins and has similarity to adiponectin and CTRP3, it has been suggested that precerebellin posseses functions other than those already stated.

Description: PRC1 (Protein Regulator of Cytokinesis 1) is a key regulator of cytokinesis and has been identified as a substrate for several cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). High levels of PRC1 expression occurs during S and G2/M and drops dramatically after mitosis exit and G1 entry. It is located in the nucleus during interphase and binds to the midzone of mitotic spindles during anaphase and is localized to the cell midbody during cytokinesis. Depletion of PRC1 has been shown to prevent cellular cleavage, but it has no effect on nuclear division, demonstrating the importance of PRC1 in mitosis.
