Gene Information

human ... PLEKHM1(9842)

General description

The gene PLEKHM1 (pleckstrin homology and RUN domain containing M1) is mapped to human chromosome 17q21.31. The encoded protein is widely expressed. The protein localizes in the cytoplasm and late endosomal/lysosomal compartments. PLEKHM1 has a RH (rubicon homologous) domain, two PH (pleckstrin homology) domains and a LIR (LC3 interaction region).

Pleckstrin homology domain-containing family M member 1 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

PLEKHM1 (pleckstrin homology and RUN domain containing M1) is involved in the end stages of endocytic and autophagy pathways. Here, it interacts with RAB7 (member of RAS oncogene family), the HOPS (homotypic fusion and vacuole protein sorting) complex and ATG8 (autophagy-related protein 8) proteins. It plays an important role in autophagosome-lysosome fusion and endosome and autophagosome maturation. PLEKHM1 also participates in osteoclast function and bone resorption. In presence of Salmonella enterica Typhimurium, the PLEKHM1-RAB7-HOPS complex targets the Salmonella effector protein SifA (Salmonella-induced filament protein A) and controls vacuoles consisting of Salmonella.

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.

Through the canonical LC3 interaction motif (LIR), [W/F/Y]-X1-X2-[I/L/V], protein complexes are recruited to autophagosomes to perform their functions as either autophagy adaptors or receptors. How these adaptors/receptors selectively interact with either LC3 or GABARAP families remains unclear. Herein, we determine
