General description

USP21 gene is located on the human chromosome 1q23.3.
Ubiquitin specific peptidase 21 (USP21) is a protease consisting of 381 amino acid residues and a molecular mass of 43kDa. It is part of the ubiquitin-specific protease family.

Immunogen

ubiquitin specific peptidase 21 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 and immunoprecipitation 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.
Anti-USP21 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blotting[1] and immunohistochemistry.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Ubiquitin specific peptidase 21 (USP21) removes ubiquitin from ubiquitinated proteins and neural precursor cell expressed, developmentally down-regulated 8 (NEDD8) from NEDD8-conjugated proteins. It may have a role in cell growth regulation and is involved in immune responses. USP21 deubiquitinates interleukin-33 and stabilizes it. The protein acts as a negative regulator of nuclear factor-kappa B pathway by deubiquitinating receptor-interacting protein 1 (RIP1).

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.
