Gene Information

human ... FAM129B(64855)

General description

FAM129B (family with sequence similarity 129 member B) localizes in the cytoplasm and translocates to the adherens junctions in the presence of β-catenin. The protein contains a pleckstrin homology domain and a proline rich region.

Immunogen

Niban-like protein 1 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-FAM129B antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, 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. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions

FAM129B (family with sequence similarity 129 member B) is phosphorylated via MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) signaling pathway. The phosphorylated form of FAM129B is responsible for cancer cell invasion, separation of the protein from cell-cell junctions and apoptosis inhibition. It positively regulates Wnt/β-catenin signaling in melanoma cells, and thereby promotes apoptosis.

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.

The inability of targeted BRAF inhibitors to produce long-lasting improvement in the clinical outcome of melanoma highlights a need to identify additional approaches to inhibit melanoma growth. Recent studies have shown that activation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway decreases tumor growth

A recent proteomics study identified FAM129B or MINERVA as a target of the MAP kinase (Erk1/2) signaling cascade in human melanoma cells. Phosphorylation of the protein was found to promote cell invasion and the dissociation of the protein from the
