Gene Information

human ... HOOK3(84376)

General description

The gene HOOK3 (hook microtubule-tethering protein 3) is mapped to human chromosome 8p11. The encoded protein belongs to the hook family of proteins. The protein localizes to the Golgi and microtubules and has a microtubule-binding domain.

Immunogen

Protein Hook homolog 3 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

All Prestige Antibodies®Powered by Atlas Antibodies is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images 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.
Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below.

Biochem/physiol Actions

In Caenorhabditis elegans, the HOOK3 (hook microtubule-tethering protein 3) protein is required for connecting the centrosome and the nucleus. It participates in transport of pericentriolar satellites, needed for centrosomal assembly in neurogenesis. HOOK3-RET (ret proto-oncogene) fusion protein is identified in papillary thyroid carcinoma and it results in tumor formation in nude mice. In presence of Salmonella enterica infection, the Salmonella SpiC (pathogenicity island 2 secreted effector protein) inactivates HOOK3 function and thereby affects the cellular trafficking and phagosome-lysosome fusion.

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.
