Gene Information

human ... PAGE4(9506)

General description

Prostate-associated Gene 4 (PAGE4) is mapped to human chromosome Xp11.21. The gene codes for a prostate specific tumor antigen PAGE4. The protein belongs to the PAGE family, which is a subgroup of cancer/testis antigens (CTAs). PAGE4 is highly expressed in uterine and prostate cancer. It is also expressed in normal prostate, male and female reproductive tissues at a basal level.

Immunogen

G antigen family C member 1 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.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Prostate-associated Gene 4 (PAGE4) is an intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) with an anti-apoptotic function in prostate cancer (PCa) cells. The encoded protein acts as a stress-response protein by controlling the production of reactive oxygen species and preventing DNA damage. PAGE 4, on phosphorylation by HIPK1 (Homeodomain Interacting Protein Kinase 1), enhances c-jun trans-activation and thus plays a major role in stress response pathway in diseased cells.

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.
