Application

Anti-OCRL 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

OCRL (oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe) is a phosphoinositide 5-phosphatase expressed in the trans-Golgi network (TGN), endosomes, phagosomes and certaion portions of the plasma membrane near adherens and tight junction. It acts as an inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (INPP5E) in membrane trafficking. During intracellular trafficking, it interacts with small GTPases. It also performs in the endosomal activities by interacting with rab family members such as RAB5, RAB8a, and small GTPases ARF1 and ARF6. At the plasma membrane, OCRL also controls the levels of phosphatidylinositol-4, 5-bisphosphate (PIP2) during membrane ruffling and actin polymerization. It has been observed that OCRL may be involved in cilia maintenance. Mutation in OCRL causes an X-linked genetic disorder, Lowe syndrome (LS) with congenital cataracts, learning disabilities and renal dysfunction.

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.

Vesicular carriers transport proteins and lipids from one organelle to another, recognizing specific identifiers for the donor and acceptor membranes. Two important identifiers are phosphoinositides and GTP-bound GTPases, which provide well-defined but mutable labels. Phosphatidylinositol and its phosphorylated derivatives are

Sealing of phagosomes is accompanied by the disappearance of phosphatidylinositol (4,5)-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P(2)) from their cytoplasmic leaflet. Elimination of PtdIns(4,5)P(2), which is required for actin remodeling during phagosome formation, has been attributed to hydrolysis by phospholipase C and phosphorylation by phosphatidylinositol
