General description

The gene sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectin-6 (SIGLEC6) is mapped to human chromosome 19q13.3. SIGLEC6 is a trans-membrane receptor in the CD33-like family of siglecs that binds sialyl-TN glycans and leptin. In humans, the protein is expressed in the placenta (particularly trophoblasts) and circulating human B cells.

Immunogen

Sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectin 6 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.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Glycodelin-A interaction with sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectin-6 (SIGLEC6) inhibits trophoblast invasiveness by down-regulating extracellular signal-regulated kinases/c-Jun signalling pathway. SIGLEC6 along with leptin is involved in excess proliferation and invasion of gestational trophoblastic disease. SIGLEC6 is up-regulated in preeclampsia, which is one of the main reasons of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality and is results in abnormalities in placenta.

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.

Modulation by balancing activating and inhibitory receptors constitutes an important mechanism for regulating immune responses. Cells that are activated following ligation of receptors bearing immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs (ITAMs) can be negatively regulated by other receptors bearing immuno-receptor tyrosine-based inhibition

Sialic acid immunoglobulin-like lectin (Siglec)-6 is a transmembrane receptor that binds leptin. Leptin is an obesity-associated peptide hormone overexpressed in gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD). GTD encompasses several placental abnormalities that range from benign to malignant. Among GTD, molar placentas are
