Description générale

Niemann Pick type C (NPC2) protein is a member of the Niemann Pick type C family of proteins.
The gene NPC2 (Niemann-Pick disease type C2) is mapped to human chromosome 14q24.3. It contains only five exons spanning a length of 13.5kb and encodes a soluble lysosomal protein of 132 amino acids.

Immunogène

Epididymal secretory protein E1 precursor 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.
Anti-NPC2 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blotting and immunohistochemistry.

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Niemann-Pick type C is a lysosomal storage disease (fatal autosomal recessive disorder) caused due to mutations in NPC1 and NPC2 genes. It is an inherited disorder in which cholesterol and other lipids accumulate in the late endosomal/lysosomal compartment. The disease is characterized by hepatosplenomegaly and progressive neurological deterioration. NPC2 protein is one of the most abundant components of the epididymal fluid and contains a functional cholesterol-binding site that can transfer cholesterol between membranes. It has a key role for cellular cholesterol regulation in the innate immune response. The protein can be involved in regulation of cholesterol levels in spermatozoa during epididymal maturation. NPC2 acts as a specific regulator of arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism and inflammation and may help in the treatment of inflammatory diseases characterized by the presence of activated fibroblasts.

Caractéristiques et avantages

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.

Niemann-Pick type C (NPC) disease is a rare autosomal-recessive lysosomal storage disease typically accompanied by progressive impairment of nervous system and liver function. Biochemically, the disorder presents with an inhibited egress of cholesterol and glycosphingolipids from endosomal and lysosomal compartments
