General description

Transforming acidic coiled-coil-containing protein 3 is encoded by TACC3 gene in humans and belonging to the human transforming acidic coiled-coil (TACC) family of centrosomal adaptor proteins. It is also known as ERIC1 and ERIC-1.

Immunogen

Transforming acidic coiled-coil-containing protein 3 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

Transforming acidic coiled-coil-containing protein 3 (TACC3) plays a critical role in microtubule nucleation at the centrosome. It is involved in the regulation of microtubule nucleation at the centrosome and functions in the stabilization of the γ-tubulin ring complex assembly. It plays an essential role in spindle assembly and centrosome integrity during mitosis as well as for cellular survival. It may act as a potential therapeutic target in cancer cells. TACC3 is aberrantly expressed in a variety of human cancers. It acts as a driver of tumorigenesis as well as an inducer of oncogenic EMT.

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.

During the mitotic division cycle, cells pass through an extensive microtubule rearrangement process where microtubules forming the mitotic spindle apparatus are dynamically instable. Several centrosomal- and microtubule-associated proteins are involved in the regulation of microtubule dynamics and stability during mitosis.
