p53 plays a major role in the cellular response to DNA damage and other genomic aberrations. The activation of p53 can lead to either cell cycle arrest and DNA repair, or apoptosis. p53 is phosphorylated at multiple sites in vivo and by several different protein kinases in vitro.

Huntington's disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant neurological disorder caused by a polyglutamine (polyQ) repeat expansion in the huntingtin (Htt) protein. The disease is characterized by neurodegeneration and formation of neuronal intracellular inclusions primarily in the striatum and cortex, leading to personality changes, motor impairment, and dementia. The Huntington’s disease protein is ~350 kDa in size and is localized in the brain.

FOXP3 Antibody: FOXP3 is a member of the forkhead/winged-helix family of transcriptional regulators. FOXP3 acts as a repressor of transcription and regulates T cell activation, with its overexpression in CD4 T cells leading to an attenuation of activation-induced cytokine production and proliferation. In regulatory T (Treg) cells, FOXP3 is essential for Treg suppressor function and its expression leads to the repression of IL-17 expression. Genetic mutations involving FOXP3 are the cause of immunodeficiency polyendocrinopathy, enteropathy, X-linked syndrome (IPEX), also known as X-linked autoimmunity-immunodeficiency syndrome.

AIMP2 was initially identified as a part of an aminoacyl-tRNA synthesase complex. It was later discovered to be a cofactor and substrate of Parkin, a Ring-type E3 ubiquitin ligase that is important for the survival of dopamine neurons in Parkinson’s disease; accumulation of AIMP2 in these cells lead to catecholaminergic cell death. AIMP2 can also bind to TRAF2, a key player in the TNF-alpha signaling pathway, causing the ubiquitination of TRAF2 by cIAP1, leading to TNF-alpha-dependent apoptosis. Finally, AIMP2 has been suggested to function as a tumor suppressor.

The protein encoded by this gene is a cytosolic protein which contains a phosphotyrosine binding (PTD) domain. The PTD domain has been found to interact with the cytoplasmic tail of the LDL receptor. Mutations in this gene lead to LDL receptor malfunction and cause the disorder autosomal recessive hypercholesterolaemia. [provided by RefSeq]

The metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are key receptors in the modulation of excitatory synaptic transmission in the central nervous system. They are implicated in many forms of neural plasticity as well as learning and memory and drug abuse. Group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (consisting of mGluR1 and mGluR5) are G-protein-coupled neurotransmitter receptors that are localized in the perisynaptic region of the postsynaptic membrane. When activated, Group I mGluRs lead to stimulation of phospholipase and activation of Protein Kinase C. In contrast activation of Group II metabotropic receptors (mGluR2 and mGluR3) leads to inhibition of adenylate cyclase.

Inhibits NF kappa B by complexing with and trapping it in the cytoplasm. May be involved in regulation of transcriptional responses to NF kappa B, including cell adhesion, immune and proinflammatory responses, apoptosis, differentiation and growth. Controlled by sequential serine phosphorylation, ubiquitination and degradation. Tyrosine phosphorylation could only lead to dissociation from NF kappa B.

TRAF3IP3 stimulated cell growth by modulating the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway. TRAF3 interacts with Smac/DIABLO via TRAF domain, leading to an increased proapoptotic effect of Smac/DIABLO in cytoplasm.

SRPX2 Antibody: Sushi-repeat-containing protein X-linked 2 (SRPX2) is a neural gene functioning in the speech and language center of the human brain; mutations in this gene lead to epilepsy, speech dyspraxia, mental retardation and cognitive disorders. Recently, SRPX2 was found to be a novel mediator of angiogenesis and can act as a ligand for the urokinase-type plasminogen activator, a protein that can facilitate invasive migration of sprouting endothelial cells. SRPX2 is also overexpressed in gastric cancer, leading to increased phosphorylation levels of focal adhesion kinase and enhanced cellular migration and adhesion, suggesting that SRPX2 may be a potential target in the treatment of metastatic cancers.

The protein encoded by this gene is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is a member of the protein kinase superfamily. This protein is a receptor for members of the epidermal growth factor family. EGFR is a cell surface protein that binds to epidermal growth factor. Binding of the protein to a ligand induces receptor dimerization and tyrosine autophosphorylation and leads to cell proliferation. Mutations in this gene are associated with lung cancer.

Adapter protein, which negatively regulates T-cell receptor (TCR) signaling. Inhibits T-cell antigen-receptor induced activation of nuclear factor of activated T-cells. Involved in the negative regulation of positive selection and mitosis of T-cells. May act by linking signaling proteins such as ZAP70 with CBL, leading to a CBL dependent degradation of signaling proteins.

CD79 is a disulfide-linked heterodimer composed of an α chain (CD79a) and a β chain (CD79b) that associates non-covalently with membrane immunoglobulin to form the B cell receptor (BCR) complex. Its expression is restricted to B lymphocytes first appearing on the surface at the pro-B cell stage and remaining through all stages of B cell differentiation prior to plasma cells. Crosslinking of the BCR leads to B cell activation. The monoclonal antibody CB3-1 reacts with the β chain of CD79.

The Ber-H2 monoclonal antibody specifically reacts with human CD30, a 120kDA type I transmembrane glycoprotein of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily (TNFR) also known as the Ki-1 antigen. CD30 can elicit signals leading to either activation or apoptosis through interaction with CD30 ligand (CD30L). It is expressed by a subset of extrafollicular activated B and T cells, lung macrophages, activated NK cells, lymphomas, and endothelial cells. It is highly expressed on Hodgkins and Reed-Sternberg cells.
