Description
General description
Ets variant gene 6 (ETV6) is mapped to human chromosome 12p13. ETV6 protein consists of two domains namely, the HLH (helix-loop-helix) domain and the ETS (E26 transformation-specific) domain encoded by exons 3 and 4 and exons 6 through 8, respectively. It also contains an internal domain encoded by exon 5.
Immunogen
Transcription factor ETV6 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)
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
ETV6-NTRK3 (neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor type 3) gene fusions might function as a diagnostic marker for congenital (or infantile) fibrosarcoma (CFS). They also play a vital role in building a histogenetic relationship between CFS and congenital mesoblastic nephroma (CMN). ETV6 gene selectively regulates postembryonic hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) survival. The encoded protein acts as an active transcriptional repressor, by means of its helix-loop-helix (HLH) and internal domains. ETV6 might be involved in modification of a transcription factor function, activation of kinase activity of partner gene and can cause leukemogenesis by its multiple rearrangement partner genes. ETV6 might contribute to various pathogenic mechanisms, leading to cell transformation.
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
